You just put it in a fraction 1/10
3)The original rational number was 17/12.
4)The age of Ruby and Reshma are 20 and 28 years respectively.
Explanation:
3)Let the numerator be x.
So denominator will be (x - 5)
If we add 5 to numberator then it will be (x + 5)
New number is (x + 5)/(x - 5)=11/6
Solve for X by cross multiplying
6(x + 5)=11(x - 5)
6x + 30=11x - 55
5x=85
x=17
So original rational number was 17/12.
4)The ages of Ruby and Reshma are in the ratio 5:7
So, let the present ages of Ruby and Reshma be 5x and 7x respectively.
Also, it is given that four years from now the ratio of their ages will be 3:4
So, the equation - 5x + 4 / 7x + 3 = 3/4
⇒4(5x+4)=3(7x+4)
⇒20x+16=21x+12
⇒21x−20x=16−12
⇒x=4
⇒5x=20 and 7x=28
The age of Ruby and Reshma are 20 and 28 years respectively.
Answer:
3/3 or just 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
everytime the line crosses the x and y coordinates is basically a plot. so counting from the bottom left hand corner to the "plot" in the middle is 3/3 because it rises three and runs positive 3.
Thats either 7/5 or 1 2/5 but since theres a whole number i think its 1 2/5
20:15 which reduces to 4:3 or 4/3 or 4 to 3 , hope that helped have a good day
