The number on top of a fraction is the numerator. The number on the bottom of the fraction is the denominator.
Example : 2/3....the 2 is the numerator and the 3 is the denominator
Using proportions, it is found that it takes 886 more mini-bears than regular-bears to have the same weight as one super-bear.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.
10 mini-bears weights to 12.1 grams, hence the weight of a mini-bear is of:
12.1/10 = 1.21 grams.
10 regular bears weights to 23.1 grams, hence the weight of a regular bear is of:
23.1/10 = 2.31 grams.
1 super bear weights to 2250 grams, hence the proportion between the <u>weight of a super bear and the weight of a mini-bear</u> is:
2250/1.21 = 1860.
The proportion between the <u>weight of a super bear and the weight of a regular bear</u> is:
2250/2.31 = 974.
The difference of proportions is given by:
1860 - 974 = 886.
It takes 886 more mini-bears than regular-bears to have the same weight as one super-bear.

Answer:
10m
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Perimeter</u> means adding up all of the sides of a shape.
One property of a square is that <u>all lengths of a square are the same</u>.
We also know squares have <u>4 sides</u>.
<u />
Lets set up an expression to solve the length for each side with variable S representing the length of a side:
4 * S = 40
Divide each side by 4:
S = 10
Therefore, each side of the square has a length 10m
