Answer:

The correct option is B. 6 by 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the smaller rectangle = 4 units

Width of the smaller rectangle = 6 units

Perimeter of the smaller rectangle = 2 ( length + width )

                                                          = 2 (4 + 6)

                                                          = 20 units

Now, the ratio of the smaller rectangle to the larger rectangle is 2 : 3

Let the perimeter of larger rectangle be x units

⇒ 20 : x = 2 : 3

⇒ x = 10 × 3

⇒ x = 30 units

Now, Perimeter of larger rectangle = 30 units

⇒ 2 ( L + B) = 30

⇒ L + B = 15 units

Hence, from the given options only option B. gives the L + B = 15 units.

Therefore, The dimensions of larger rectangle = 6 by 9

Hence, The correct option is B. 6 by 9

Nataly [62]

Answer:

\frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{3}{5}  =  \frac{36}{x}

3x = 36 x 5

3x = 180

x = 60

Michael has 60 marbles.

Nick recieves 9 more marbles so he has 36 + 9 = 45 marbles

The new ratio will be:

\frac{45}{60}  = \frac{3}{4}
