You turn 85% into a decimal
then multiply the decimal by the main number.
420x.85=357.
so 85% of 420 is 357
Answer:
Option A: 6 to 9 , 9/12 is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equivalent ratios simplify to same simple ratio.
In case of this question, we have to check which to the ratios doesn't simplify to 3:4 or 3/4
Option A:
6 to 9 , 9/12
6 to 9 can be written as:

9/12 simplifies to 3/4
But as one of the ratio doesn't simplify to 3:4 which means 6 to 9 is not equivalent to 3:4
Hence,
Option A: 6 to 9 , 9/12 is the correct answer.
The base of the prism is a 3:4:5 right triangle.
One of the legs is its base and the other is its height. (The longest side is the hypotenuse!)
The area of the triangular base is bh/2 = (9)(12) / 2. There are two of these.
There are also three rectangular sides on the prism.
Their dimensions are 9 by 20, 12 by 20, and 15 by 20.
You can do the arithmetic from here.
And the answer is 828cm ^2
