Answer:

4:7

20 divided by 4 = 5

So 5X7= 35.

There are now 35 girls in the club.

New ratio: 20:35

Simplify it.

The simplest form of 20/35 is 4/7.

This IS NOT A TYPO. This IS NOT INCORRECT.

Since we multiplied by 5, and both 20 and 35 are divisible by 5, is will always be 4/7 if you multiply it by 5 in simplest terms.

One more boy joins.

Now the ratio is 5/7.

5/7 cannot be simplified, therefore, 5/7 simplified is 5/7.

Hope this helps!!

What does this expression mean if you take the king's coin you give the king his due?
aleksklad [387]
The phrase or expression is meant to say that in order to receive the money you should get, you should do the job you are expected to do. Although the actual phrasing within the expression makes this a little difficult to understand this idea. In other words, you do the work, you get paid for the work you are expected to do.

Match the device with the improvement it brings.
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Cell phone - convenient communication

Industrial robot - reduction of human work-load

Power tool - faster construction

Explanation:

The cell phone one is obvious. Not so obvious is which of the remaining two goes with which. The industrial robot goes with less human work becasue industrial implies a factory, and robot means it is probably replacing humans. The remaining two also make sense together,  because power tools do make construction much faster.
