X/9 = 30/12
x = 30/12*9 = 22.5
y/7 = 30/12
y = 30/12*7 = 17.5
Answer:
(14/3, 8/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the points be
The formula for finding the coordinates of point that divides the line in a:b is:
Here x and y are the coordinates of the point that will partition the line into given ratios
Our ratio is 2 to 1,
So,
a=2
b=1
Putting the values in the formula
So the coordinates of point that divides AB in 2:1 are:
(14/3, 8/3) ..
I've been waiting for someone to ask this question. It's one of my favorite questions to answer.
percent means out of 100 so 1% = 1/100 and 40%=40/100 or 1/25
so for percent of a number, 'of' means multiply so 40% of 500= 40/100 times 500 or 20000/100 or 200
if you multiply a fraction by its recipricol (the number fliped upside down) the you will get 1 so if you multiply 1/2 by 2/1 then you will get 1
thus
percent is out of 100 so 1%=1/100 25%=25/100
if you represent 45 out of something as 45/x then you multiply it by the reciprocal of the fraction that is supposed to be equal (1/2 =2/4) then you will get 1
so 45/x times reciprocal of 100/25 then you will get 1/1 or 4500/25x
so you divide to find x and get 180
so 45 is 25% of 180
The following is extra
as stated above 'of' can be taken as multiply so
45 is 25% of 180 can be rewriten as
45=25/100 times 180
but we don't know that 180 is the answer so we replace it with x then solve for x
