Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/9
(1*4) / (9*4) = 4/36
(1*4) / (9*4) = 5/45
The first one is the ratio as it is stated in the problem.
The second one multiplies top and bottom by 4
The third one multiplies top and bottom of the top ratio by 5.
Answer:
120 blocks total
Step-by-step explanation:
All of the little cubes have side length 2" Thus, the 11" height of the box cannot be used entirely: we waste the top 1" because the five layers of little cubes reach only to 10" from the bottom.
Start at the bottom of the box. The dimensions of the bottom are 12" by 8". Along the longer side we can lay 6 blocks (which add up to 12" and are 2" wide. We can add 3 more such rows to fill the available 8" width of the box bottom. That's 6*4, or 24 blocks.
We can add 4 more 6 block by 4 block layers before we have the maximum 5 layers stacked in the box.
5 layers times 24 blocks per layer comes to 120 blocks total.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You are trying to find the values of two quantities, so you will need to set up a system of two equations in two variables. We'll call M the price of a movie and V the price of a video game.
The first month: 3 movies, 8 video games, $55. Let's translate this into algebra:
3M + 8V = 55
The second month: 5 movies, 2 video games, $18. Translated:
5M + 2V = 18
Solve that system of equations
