Answer:
10 potatoes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of potatoes.
Then by proportion:
30/12 = x/4
12x = 4*30 = 120
x = 10.
First of all, you have to change the numbers in to the same form so I am going to change it to percentage.
2/3 = 0.66
9/16 = 0.56 So= 0.52, 9/16, 2/3
0.52

Let's solve for x and z ~

[ they form co - exterior angle pair ]


now, it's time for x :
First angle z is equal to its vertical opposite angle, and then that angle forms co - interior angle pair with (3x - 28)






That's all... let me know if you have questions ~
