Answer:
<h2> 52 chickens</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:'
given
we are told that the total number of animals is 169
the ratio of horses to chickens= 9:4
total ratio= 13
Required:
number of chickens
Applying part to all principle, let the number of chickens be x
4/13=x/169
cross multiply
4*169=13*x
divide both sides by 13
x=4*169/13
x=676/13
x=52
There are 52 chickens
Answer:
"In word" as in word form?
3/4 = three fourths

3/4 = three fourths (again?)
1 3/5 = one and three fifths
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The secants form a proportion where the full length of the secant is the denominator of a fraction where the numerator is the external part of the secant.
7/(x + 7) = 6/(15 + 6) Cross Multiply after combining
7 / (x + 7) = 6/(21)
6 * (x + 7) = 7 * 21 Remove the brackets
6x + 42 = 147 Subtract 42
6x = 147 - 42
6x = 105 Divide by 6
x = 17.5
I think I've done this correctly. If you find an error, please let me know and I'll open it for editing.
67.5 divided by 11.25 equals 6 so you made 6 costumes
