A:b = 8:5 b:c = 3:4
since both sides have b. make b the same. multiply the left by the right side b value of 3 and multiply the right by the left side b value of 5.
3(a:b) and 5(b:c)
3 (8:5) and 5(3:4)
24:15 15:20
now that both sides have the same b value
a:b:c = 24:15:20
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The first number on the mechanic's list is the one that is most negative. The negative numbers on the list are ...
-3/16, -1/4, -1/16
These are easier to compare if they have a common denominator:
-1/4 = -4/16
So, the numbers are ...
-3/16, -4/16, -1/16
The one that is most negative is -4/16 = -1/4. Only one answer choice has this listed first. (No further work is necessary.)
Could you add more details to make it more understandable? Your information is bare.
Well, you got that 4 cubes = 4 marbles, so that clears that cubes = marbles, so then then a cone would be 9 marbles.
