Shaun is correct, he can use 5 as the denominator of the fraction or partition of line with measurement of 1 unit (the point is in between 0 to 1). It is also mentioned that the point has been placed in equal distance or equally marked. Then, the third point is 3/5 and the first point is 1/5.

As given

A mosaic at the art museum is divided into 6 sections that each contain about the same number of tiles.

There are 2,889 tiles total in the mosiac .

In the given figure p=120° and y : z=2 : 3 Find x, y and z​
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

x = 60°

y = 72°

z = 48°

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 180 - p = 180 - 120 = 60

Since y;z = 3:2 ,   2y = 3z  or z = 2y/3

Now, x + y + z = 180

60 + y + 2y/3 = 180     Multiply thru by 3 to remove the fraction

180 + 3y + 2y = 540

180 + 5y = 540

5y = 360

y = 72

z = 2(72)/3 = 48

Check:  60 + 72 + 48 = 180
