To make a shade of paint called jasper green, mix 8 quarts of green paint with 3/4 cups of black paint.

1 answer:

5 0

8 quarts = 32 cups
So we have a ratio of 32 : 3/4 cups
And the equal ratio of 4: x
So to solve for x, divide 3/4 by 8.
3/4 divided by 8 = 3/4 •1/8 = 3/32 of a cup of green paint.

Ashirt button has a diameter of 0.61 cm. Which of these is an approximate measurement of the circumference of the button?

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

1.92cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of a circle is computed using the formula:

$C=2\pi r$

Where:

r = radius

π = 3.14

Since the radius is the distance of the center of the circle from any point of the circle and the diameter is the measure of a straight line that goes across the center of the circle from one side to the other, radius is half of a diameter. So the diameter = 2r.

We can then use the diameter to solve for the circumference by using the formula"

$C = \pi d$

So we just plug in what we know in the formula:

$C = \pi d\\\\C = (3.14)(0.61cm)\\\\C = 1.9154cm\cong1.92cm$

Two equivalent ratios for 12/60

Marat540 [252]

If you would like to know two equivalent ratios for 12/60, you can calculate this using the following steps:

12/60 = 12/2 / 60/2 = 6/30
6/30 = 6/2 / 30/2 = 3/15
3/15 = 3/3 / 15/3 = 1/5

The result would be 6/30 or 3/15 or 1/5.
