Answer:
3:2 is equal to 12:8 and 12:8 is not 9:8
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratios are also fractions
3/2 is also 12/8
12/8 is not 9/8
First, we compute the highest common factor between the numbers of toys. The highest common factor for 45, 105 and 75 is 15. Therefore, we will need 15 shelves. On each shelf, there will be 45/15 = 3 dolls, 105/15 = 7 footballs and 75/15 = 5 small cars
Let's call the younger student's age A and the older student's age B. The teacher's age will be T.
B = 2A
T = 5B
T+5 = 5(A+5)
Simplify the last equation.
T+5 = 5A+25
T = 5A+20
Now we have two equations solved for T, so we can set them equal to each other.
5B = 5A + 20
We can plug 2A in for B
5(2A) = 5A + 20
10A = 5A + 20
5A = 20
A = 4
To find T, we plug 4 in for A in T = 5A + 20
T = 5(4) + 20
T = 40
The answer is 40 years old.
Do this and then simplify the result
Answer:
38.4 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
5/4 = 1.25
Rate = pages / Time
Time = 1.25 hours
Pages = 48
Rate = 48/1.25
Rate = 38.4
