The ratio of red to green is 5:6 which means that for every 5 red cars, there are 6 green cars
The ratio of green to blue is 3:10 telling us that for every 3 green cars, there are 10 blue cars.
The ratio 3:10 is equivalent to 6:20 after we multiply both parts by 2. This now says that for every 6 green cars, there are 20 blue cars.
------------------------------
Let's say we had 5 red cars, 6 green cars and 20 blue cars
Based on that info, we know that the ratio of red to green is 5:6
And the ratio of green to blue is 6:20 which reduces to 3:10
We don't reduce 6:20 to 3:10 however, since that would change the green count from 6 to 3. We want to keep the green count at 6.
So because there are 5 red cars, 6 green cars, and 20 blue cars in this example, and this example points to the proper ratios mentioned earlier, this means that the final answer is 5:6:20. This ratio cannot be reduced or simplified as there are no common factors (other than 1) for 5, 6, and 20.
Answer:
$7,367.43
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both 3x and 6x have the variable x in it, we can just go ahead and add 3 and 6.
3x+6x=9x
Let's solve for "r" by bringing them all to one side.
-3r=6-4r
+4r +4r
r=6
So, r is equal to 6.
