7/19 are the fraction of men's shoes

explanation + example:

Use the total number as the denominator: 6 + 8 = 14

Use each of the ratio terms as the numerator in a fraction:

6 becomes 6/14

8 becomes 8/14

Reduce each fraction to lowest terms:

6/14 simplifies to 3/7

8/14 simplifies to 4/7

The part-to-part ratio 6 : 8 converts into the fractions:

6/14 = 3/7

8/14 = 4/7

Answer:

shown in explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a) ∆EPB similar to ∆ERG

b) angle BEP = angle GER (common angle shared)

angle EPB = angle ERG (corresponding angles, PB//RG, parallelogram)

therefore through Angle-Angle similarity test, ∆EPB is similar to ∆ERG

or explanation can also be shortened to

∆EPB is similar to ∆ERG (AA, similarity)

c) since proven they are similar ∆, then we can proceed to use property of ratio of corresponding sides being equal

\frac{pb}{rg}  =  \frac{ep}{er}

RG = 200+300=500m

\frac{200}{500}  =  \frac{ep}{ep + 350}

cross multiply (from what I've learnt)

2ep+700=5ep

ep= 700/3 = 233 ⅓m (answer for length EP)

Do the same for length BE(using ratio of corresponding sides)

\frac{be}{ge}  =  \frac{pb}{rg}

\frac{be}{be + 400}  =  \frac{200}{500}

cross multiply again to get:

5BE = 2BE + 800

BE = 800/3 = 266 ⅔ m (answer for length BE)

Order the numbers from least to greatest. 0.3, 9/25, 33%, 0.35
Finger [1]

Answer:

0.3(least)

0.33

0.35

0.36(greatest)

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so first we need to have all of our numbers in the same category of variable. So first, we will convert 9/25 to a decimal.

To do that, we must divide 9 by 25 to get our answer of 0.36.

Now, we will convert the 33% to a decimal by dividing it by 100 to get 0.33

We now have our list, which should be ordered as:

0.3

0.33

0.35

0.36
