Answer:

  40 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The post is 8/12 = 2/3 as tall as the shadow is long. We expect the same relationship holds for the tree.

  tree height = (2/3)(shadow length) = (2/3)(60 ft) = 40 ft

The tree is 40 feet tall.

John put away 36 of 48 shirts in his closet. Don has 84 shirts. If he put away the same percent, how many shirts did Don put in
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

John's percentage:

36 and 48 have a common factor of 12 so divide both of them by 12.

36/12= 3 and 48/12=4 therefore

so 36/48= 3/4 which is 75% but we don't need to focus on the percent.

Don's no. of shirts:

we know Don has 84 shirts so we say

3/4 of 84= no. of shirts that Don put in his closet

84/4=21 21x3=63

Don put 63 shirts in his closet.

Hope that helped! Anymore questions just ask! :)
