Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be 2x and 3x.

According to the question,

2x+3x=45

5x=45

x=45/5

x=9

so th required numbers are 18 and 27 as

2x=2*9=18

3x=3*9=27

It is given that,

→ Two numbers are in the ratio 2:3.

→ Their sum is 45.

We have to,

find the both required numbers.

Now assume numbers as,

→ 2y and 3y

As per the given information,

→ 2y + 3y = 45

First we can find the value of y,

→ 2y + 3y = 45

→ 5y = 45

→ y = 45/5

→ [y = 9]

The given ratio is,

→ 2 : 3

Let's find the value of 2y,

→ 2y --- {y = 9}

→ 2 × (9)

→ 18

Let's find the value of 3y,

→ 3y --- {y = 9}

→ 3 × (9)

→ 27

Hence, the number is 18 and 27.

The triangles are similar. The area of the larger triangle 603cm2. what is the area of the smaller triangle?

tekilochka [14]

The smaller triangle is scaled by a factor of (18 cm)/(54 cm) = 1/3 of the larger triangle. The ratio of areas is the square of that scale factor.

small triangle area = (1/3)^2 × large triangle area

... = (1/9) × 603 cm^2

... = 67 cm^2

The appropriate choice is

... C. 67 cm^2
