Answer:
Imagine an easier version of this problem: You have a board 5 feet long that you must cut (divide, right?) into two equal parts. It is probably clear to you that you simply divide the length (5) by the number of parts you're dividing it into (2) to obtain the length of each piece (2.5 feet).
Use the same method for your problem 5 feet divided by 6 is 0.83 feet per piece.
We do not ordinarily divide feet into decimal portions, but instead into inches. Since an inch is 1/12 of a foot, you could simply say 5/6 = how many twelfths? or 5/6 = n/12 Solve this by inspection or by cross multiplying 5 times 12 equals n times 6. So n must equal 10, and your pieces of board are each 10 inches long.
Answer: speed is 540 km/h
Step-by-step explanation: Lets mark speed as v.
Because distenace is same, you can mark 6 h · 900 km/h = 10 h · v
and v = 5400 km / 10 h = 540 km/h.
Or using inverse proportions : 10 h / 6 h = v / 900 km/h .
Before multiplying you turn lastproportion around :
10 h / 6 h = 600 km/ h / v ,which gives 10 v = 6 · 900 km/h
and result is same
Answer:
9:6, 12:8, and 15:10 are all ratios equivalent to 3:2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find an equal ratio, you can either multiply or divide each term in the ratio by the same number (but not zero).
