In similar figures sides are in proportion

The sides of the bigger parallelogram are x+8 and 20

The sides of smaller parallelogram are x and 12

The sides are in proportion

\frac{x+8}{x} =\frac{20}{12}

We can solve this for x

To solve for x we cross multiply

20x=12(x+8)

20x=12x+96

Subtracting 12x both sides

20x-12x=96

8x=96

Dividing both sides by 8

x=12

Vilka [71]
Given two similar figures, the ratio of any two corresponding sides measures with the equal in square to the ratio of any two corresponding area measure. Let x be the separation of the two long parallel sides in the larger patio.

x²/12.5<span>² = 360/250
x</span>/12.5<span> = 6/5
x</span><span> = (6*12.5)/5
x</span><span> = 75/5 = 15

That is the corresponding distance on the new patio.</span>

In a group of 60 students, 20%are girls. How many are boys?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer: About 12 of those 60 students are boys.

To find the percent, you'll convert 20% to a decimal.

20 / 100 = 0.2

Then, multiply 60 by 0.2

0.2 × 20 = 12

That's one way, another way is:

Convert 20% to a fraction.

20% = 1/5

Then multiply 60 by 1/5.

60 × 1/5 = 60/5

Lastly, divide 60 by 5

60 / 5 = 12.

Hence, 12 is the answer.
