Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We know that the perimeter is 2L+2W. Le'ts plug in the values 3 and 5 from our ratio and see what our perimeter would be with that.

2(3)+2(5)

6+10

16

How can we get this 16 to 64?

64/16=4

So, we need to multiply this length and width by four to get 64 as our perimeter!

3*4=12

5*4=20

We can plug this into our perimeter equation

2(12)+2(20)

24+40

64

Therefore, our length is 12 and our width is 20.

Have a wonderful day! :D

If 19 represents 228 gallons, what is the value of 6 units
levacccp [35]

Answer:

72 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

19 units represent 228 gallons

so

using proportion

Find out how many gallons represent 6 units

Let

x ---> the number of gallons for 6 units

\frac{228}{19}\ \frac{gallons}{units} =\frac{x}{6}\ \frac{gallons}{units}\\\\x=228(6)/19\\\\x=72\ gallons
