Answer:
4 kg : 12 kg : 20 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of "ratio units" is 1+3+5 = 9, so each of them represents ...
(36 kg)/9 = 4 kg
Multiplying the given ratio by 4 kg will show the appropriate division:
1(4 kg) : 3(4 kg) : 5(4 kg) = 4 kg : 12 kg : 20 kg
Using proportions, supposing a scale of 1 inch = 3 feet, the actual measurements of her bed are given by: 9 ft x 18 ft.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and equations can be built to find the desired measures in the problem using basic arithmetic operations such as multiplication or division, from the relations built in the problem.
One example of application of proportions is for scale problems, as the actual scale and the drawing length are compared to find the actual length of the object drawn.
In the context of this problem, the scale is given by:
1 inch = 3 feet.
The drawn length of the bed is given by:
3 inches x 6 inches.
Hence the actual length is given by:
9 feet x 18 feet.
As:
<h3>What is the missing information?</h3>
The scale of the drawing is missing, hence we are going to suppose that it is 1 inch = 3 feet.

x - Ram's age now
Ram is half his father's age now, so his father's age is two times Ram's age:
2x - Ram's father age now
x - 10 - Ram's age ten years ago
2x - 10 - Ram's father age ten years ago
ten years ago he was one third his father's age so his father's age was three times Ram's age:
2x - 10 = 3•(x - 10)
2x - 10 = 3x - 30
-10 + 30 = 3x - 2x
20 = x
2x = 2•20 = 40
Answer:
<u>Ram is 20 years old now, Ram's father is 40 years old now.</u>
So we have to put the value of 1:3 in a ratio
1 : 3
= 3:y
Ask yourself what do I have to multiply one by to get three ( the answer is three)
Because one side is multiplied by three, you have to multiply the right hand side by three to get y
3*3 is 9
Therefore, the y for 3 hours is 9
Then, we have to make another ratio
1:3
= 5:x
Ask yourself what do I have to multiply by one to get five (the answer is five)
So you multiply the other side by five as well
3*5=15
Therefore, the y for five hours is 15
