In order to divide $306 into the ratio of 9 to 5 to 3, first you have to make each section of the ratio represented by a variable, and put it into an equation.
9x + 5x + 3x = 306
Our next step is to simplify the left side of the equation by combining all of the like terms, the ones that contain variables.
17x = 306
Finally, to solve this equation, you have to divide both sides by 17 to isolate the variable x on the left side of the equation.
x = 18
However, this is not our answer as it isn't in a ratio format and doesn't really make sense. To find our ratio, we have to multiply each of our initial numbers (9, 5, and 3) by our variable, x.
9 * 18 = 162
5 * 18 = 90
3 * 18 = 54
You can verify that these numbers are correct because if you add them together you get 306.
Your final ratio is 162:90:54.
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
$1632
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Principal= $1200
Rate= 12%
Time= 3 years
The simple interest expression is given as
A= P(1+rt)
substitute
A=1200(1+0.12*3)
A=1200(1+0.36)
A=1200*1.36
A=$1632
Hence the amount is $1632
Answer:
6. x + x + 14 = 90
2x + 14 = 90
2x = 76
x = 38
angle b = 38 + 14 = 52°
7. angles on a straight line add up to 180°
x + x - 32 = 180
2x = 212
x = 106°
angle d = 106 - 32 = 74°
8. vertically opposite angles are equal
7x - 80 = 3x
-80 = -4x
20 = x
angle 1 = 7(20) - 80 = 60°
angle 2 = 3(20) = 60°
The probability is a ratio of the possible events to the total events. The total is 52 cards, so the denominator is 52. The individual properties of the specific cards are the following:
Any face or number cards is 4/52, because there are 4 cards for each symbol. On the other hand, each symbol like heart, diamond, club or spade would each have a probability of 13/52 (counting numbers 2 to 10, Ace card, and the 3 face cards). Also, there are 26 each of red and black cards. Furthermore, the words 'or' and 'and' are hint words. When you see 'or', you have to add their individual probabilities. If you see the word 'and', you'll have to multiply them. With that said, the solution is as follows:
a.) P = 4/52 + 4/52 + 4/52 = 3/13
b.) P = (13/52 + 13/52 + 4/52)(26/52) = 15/52
c.) P = 13/52
d.) P = 13/52 + 13/52 + 13/52 = 3/4
1200 ... i think this you mean
