Answer:
By comparison of the sides.
Step-by-step explanation:
If triangles are similar, that means their angles are equal and sides are proportional.
If you already have a proportion of two corresponding sides between triangles, then use that proportion and set it equal to a side you already know the measurement to. Hopefully that side is corresponding to your missing measurement, and you can then solve it.
Answer:
649 trains
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 30 seats per carriage, and there is 18 carriages per train.
You multiple 30 and 18 to get how many seats there are in a train.
30*18 is 540 seats.
To figure out how many trains would be needed to seat 350,000 passenger, you have to divide 350,000 with 540 to get how many trains would be needed.
350,000/540 is 648.1
Since the answer is 648.1 and you can't chop a train into 10 pieces, you would need 649 trains to seat 350, 000 passengers.
Answer:
3 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve using ratios
18 lbs 12 lbs
------------ = --------------
4.5 hrs x hours
Using cross products
18x = 12 * 4.5
18x = 54
Divide by 18
18x/18 = 54/18
x=3
