Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Here what we need is that the ratios be equal, which is:
x:(5/2) = 8:10 or, what is the same:
x/(5/2) = 8/10
Lets pick the left term x/(5/2) and multiply both numerator and denominator by 2 to eliminate the fraction on the denominator:
2x/2(5/2) = 2x/5
Now, we would like to make a 10 appear on the denominator. As we already have a five we need to multiply numerator and denominator by the num that, multiplied by 5 gives as 10, this is 2:
2(2x)/2(5) = 4x / 10
So, we transformed x/(5/2) in 4x/10, and both are the same, so we can replace it on our first equation:
4x/10 = 8/10
As both denominators are equal, we can concentrate only in numerators:
4x = 8
Dividing both sides by 4:
x = 2
So, for x=2 both ratios are equivalents.
Answer:
BCE
Step-by-step explanation:
I hoped this helped and mark me as brainly pls
1. 24 students and 3 absent
24-3=21
so 21 student goes
2. 21 students divided by the 3 vans
equals to 7
so 7 student went in each van
Answer:
I am pretty sure the answer would be B!
Hope this helps
Mark me brainliest if I'm right :)
if you are driving 40 miles per hour
1 hour = 40 miles
60-40 = 20 miles left
20/40 = 0.5
1+0.5 = 1.5 total hours
