To answer this, we let x some factor that would agree or make the ratio given true. We calculate as follows:

<span>2:3:4
2x:3x:4x

2x = 12
x = 6 

Therefore, the length of the longest side would be 4x = 4(6) = 24 cm, third option.</span>

Answer:

Option 3rd is correct that is 24 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the shortest  side of the triangle which is 12 centimeters.

We have been given the ratio of the three sides of the triangle

let the unknown side of the triangle be x

So, according to the ratio given we will have sides as:

2x : 3x :4x

since, shortest side is 12

So, 2x=12

x=6

Now, we have to find the longest side which is 4x

So, the required side is: 4 x 6 =24 centimeters

Therefore, option 3rd is correct.

Kennedy’s car used 11 gallons to travel 319 miles. How many gallons of gas would she need to travel 406miles
makvit [3.9K]

In the US, the gallon is a unit of measurement for liquids like milk, fuel, and water. If the petrol in your automobile is nearly empty, you should stop and get at least a few more gallons. A gallon is equal to 4 quarts, or 3.785 liters, of liquid.

<h3>Explain about the gallons?</h3>

Eight pints make up a gallon, which is a unit of measurement for liquids. It is equivalent to roughly 4.546 liters in Britain. It is roughly equivalent to 3.785 liters in America.

A gallon of water in the US weighs 8.345 pounds or 3.785 kilogram at 17 degrees Celsius, while a gallon of water in the imperial system weighs 10.02 pounds or 4.545 kilogram. The Imperial gallon weighs 16.6% less than 1 US gallon (gal).

Gas consumption is affected by driving on hills and mountainous terrain, by the state of the roads (such as stop-and-go city traffic or highway travel), and by the weather (such as high winds or snow). We can safely infer that under a number of

Answer is 14 gallons of gas need to travel 406 miles
