You need two pieces and 1 has to be 2x longer than the other
set x as the smaller piece (easier to always go with the smaller value as x)
the other piece is 2x (double in size)
your equations would be 3x=240>>> x= 60
so smaller piece/ x= 60
bigger piece/ 2x= 120
There are several important information's already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Number of cups of Oatmeal
required by Aunt Bess for making 6 dozen cookies = 3
Then
Number of cups of oatmeal
required by Aunt Bess for making 1 dozen cookies = (3/6)
= 1/2
So
Number of cups of oatmeal
required by Aunt Bess for making 18 dozen cookies = (1/2) * 18
= 9 cups
So Aunt Bess will require 9 cups of oatmeal for baking 18 dozen cookies. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to undestand.
Answer:
1201.2 in (100.1ft)
Step-by-step explanation:
A scale model represents a ratio. All sides must be shrunk or increased based on a constant value. In this case the ratio of the model is 1/13 the size of the original giving us a 1:13 ratio. So each side of your scale model must be multiplied by 13 to find the real value of the side.
First convert all units to inches then divide the width of the real windmill by the width of the scale model (both in inches) you will see the answer is 13. Multiply the inch values of all sides of your model by 13 and this gives you the proportional value of each side of the real windmill in relation to the scale model.
Since the ratio of girls and boys must be the same in each team, and all the competitors must be involved, it means that each team's ratio of boys : girls must be equal to the total ratio of Boys : Girls = 36 :27= 4 / 3.
Now 4 / 3, the most simplified version of 36 / 27, happens by dividing the numerator & demoninator by 9 (the greatest number it can divide by). So the greatest number will be 9 teams, each of 4 Boys & 3 Girls
-3/5 because you multiply 9/10 by -2/3
