By using the information you have, you can use make a proportion to solve this. You burn 4 logs in 2 hours or 4/2. You are comparing this to your unknown number, x, over 8 hours. So it looks like this 4/2 = x/8. You read it as four logs in two hours is x logs in eight hours. To solve you cross multiply. You do 2 times x and 4 times eight. That would be 2x= 32. Your goal is getting x alone, so divide each side by 2. Your answer is x= 16 logs in eight hours. You can solve this different and maybe easier ways but this is the best way if you want to get used to going this in algebra. Hope that helps! :)

What Ratio can you write that compares days with games two days without them right this ratio three ways to
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

As a fraction: \mathbf{\dfrac{363}{2}}

As a colon,  363:2

By using the word to; we have: 363 to 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio is a comparison of two quantities. We can write a ratio as a fraction, using the word “to,” or using a colon.

A rate is a ratio that compares two different units, such as distance and time, or a ratio that compares two different things measured with the same unit, such as cups of water and litres of petrol.

We can use a ratio to compare the number of days regardless of employing any professional sports events each year with the total number of days in a year.

The ratio with which we can write, that compares days with games in a year with two days without them can be written in three ways.

Suppose there are 365 days in a year and it appears that two days in that year exist without a game.

i.e.

365 - 2(days without game) = 363 days with a game

Then:

As a fraction: \mathbf{\dfrac{363}{2}}

As a colon,  363:2

By using the word to; we have: 363 to 2

iragen [17]

Answer:

provides a procedure to hand-draw a square and a circle of equal area

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Vitruvian Man, an arm span and height have a nearly perfect correspondence in the human body. As a result, the body is placed perfectly inside a square. Buildings and other works of man should also occur depending on these proportions. All of this ties in with the problem of finding a procedure to hand-draw a square and a circle of equal area.
