So for 1, the way to find one 'part' of the ratio, is to add up the ratio and divide the number from 180 (180 degrees in a triangle). So you would do 7 + 13 + 16 = 36. 180 divided by 36 = 5. Each part represents '5'. So to find the angles, you would do the coefficient multiplied by 5. Therefore, angle DEA is 13 * 5, which is 65 degrees, angle DFA is 16 * 5 = 80 degrees, and angle FDE is 7 * 5, which is 35. You know this is correct because 80 + 35 + 65 = 180 degrees.

For 2, you just have to set up a ratio. So we know that there are 320 cookies for 16 students, so the ratio would be set up as 320:16. So the cookie:student ratio, a.k.a, the number of cookies for each student is going to be the entire ratio divided by 16. We do this because there are 16 students, so to find the amount of cookies for 1 student, we do 16 / 16, which is 1. But of course, this affects the first part of the ratio too, so you do 320 divided by 16, which is 20. So the cookie:student ratio is 20:1. Every 1 student gets 20 cookies. 

For 3, you just have to set up another ratio. If he finds 2 clovers in the first 12 minutes, the clover:minute ratio will be 2:12, or 1:6. This means that for every 6 minutes spent searching, 1 clover will be found. If he spends a total of 180 minutes searching, we can predict the number of clovers he will find by doing a proportion calculation. 180 / 6 = 30. That means we have to multiply 1:6 by 30 to find the number of clovers he will find. We multiply by 30 because 6 * 30 is 180 minutes, and obviously, this will affect the first part of the ratio too. 1 * 30 = 30. So that means the ratio is now 30:180. He will find 30 clovers in 180 minutes.

I hope you get it by now, but if you don't let me know. I'll help you answer the rest of the questions :)

You want to compare the square root of 55 using "mental math". Start off by choosing two perfect squares that you can think of that are close to 55.

If you don't know perfect squares then start with the number 2 and multiply it by itself. 2 times 2 equals 4, so 4 is a perfect square.

Take the number 3, multiply it by itself, and so on. Do this for all the numbers until you find two perfect squares that are close to 55.

The two perfect squares closest to 55 are the square roots of 49 and 64. Find the square root of these numbers.

√49 = 7

√64 = 8

Calculate how far 55 is from 49 and 64. 55 is 6 digits away from 49 and 9 digits away from 64.

This means the square root of 55 will be closer to the square root of 49; 7. Since we know that it will be closer to 7, you can put the less than sign for your answer.

√55 < 7.7

(The actual square root of 55 is ~7.4, so we were correct in determining the answer without using a calculator!)

alexandr1967 [171]
5 people x $5 appetizers = $25
5 people x $10 main dish = $50
Total cost for the group of 5 = $75

$75 - 20% (.2) = $15 each person has to pay

Check ur work
$15 x 5 = $75
