Answer: A proportion is simply a statement that two ratios are equal.
Example: 2:6 = 1:3
To get that you do this: 2:6 ÷ 2:2 = 1:3
-----------------------------------------------------------
Example 2: 5:10 = 1:2
To get that you do this: 5:10 ÷ 2:2 = 1:2
I think it’s 2. You can see this because if you count the squares in the smaller triangle it is 3 along. You would then need to double the amount of squares on all sides. This makes the larger triangle now 6 squares along. 6/3 is 2 making the scale factor 2. (This is only if I have read the question correctly and we are calculating small to big. If I have read it wrong and it is big to small it would be 1/2)
X = total sales
y = sharon's commision earnings
Since Sharon makes 4% of the total sales, we want to calculate how many sales equate to a $150 return. Since 4% = .04, the solution would be :
y = .04 x
150 = .04 x
150/.04 = x
3750 = x
