Answer:

18.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't need to figure out how much each person needs, in dollars.

Rather, we can use the ratio to figure this out quickly.

The ratio of Steve, Elizabeth, and Andy is:

3:5:8

Ratio is parts, so in total there are:

3 + 5 + 8 = 16 parts

Out of which Steve will invest on "3" parts, so Steve will own 3 out of 16 parts in the business. This is our answer.

But we need the percentage, and percentage can be found by dividing and then multiplying the answer by 100. Lets do this:

3/16 = 0.1875

0.1875 * 100 = 18.75%

Steve owns 18.75% of the business

Answer: The area of the enclosure is 1,029 square meters

Step-by-step explanation: The first thing is to use the unit of measurement required by the question, and to do this we need to convert what we have to what is required.

If the scale of the diagram is given as every 4cm represents 7m, that means, every unit of the actual measurement would be given as

(X/4) x 7

For the length of the enclosure, we can determine that as follows;

Length = (28/4) x 7

Length = 7 x 7

Length = 49m

And for the width,

Width = (12/4) x 7

Width = 3 x 7

Width = 21m

Therefore, the area is calculated as,

Area = L x W

Area = 49 x 21

Area = 1029 m²
