Idk, why does the world need problems like this, not like everyone is going to grow up to be a math teacher.
The constant of proportionality is 3/8
4/3 of the area of the larger hexagon to the area of the smaller hexagon
Let the sides of the interior hexagon be 2 cm long, then this hexagon is made up of 6 equilateral triangles of side = 2.
The area of this hexagon = 6 * 1 * sqrt3 = 6 sqrt3 ( as the triangle is made up of 2 60-30-90 triangles)
The exterior hexagon is made up of 6 equilateral triangles with altitude 2 and the area = 6 * 2 * (2 / sqrt3 ) = 24 / sqrt3
area exterior hex / interior hex = 24 / sqrt3 * 1 / 6sqrt3 = 24/18
= 4/3
Required ratio = 4/3 answer

Answer: The options are kinda weird
But the solution to x - 12.5 = 17 is x = 29.5, so whichever equation you plug this into is correct is the right equation...
167 + 19 = 186x
186x + 16 = 1132
subtract 16 from both sides
186x = 1116
divide by 186 on both sides
x = 6
