Answer:
A) 1/45
B) 1/60
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Part A</u>
The actual car has a length to width ratio of ...
length/width = (570 cm)/(180 cm) = 57/18 = 3 1/6
The rectangle on the screen has a length to width ratio of ...
length/width = (13 cm)/(4 cm) = 3 1/4
Relative to its width, the screen rectangle is longer than necessary for a model of the car. So, the scale factor will be determined by the width of the car relative to the width of the screen model.
For a model width of 4 cm, the scale factor is ...
model/life-size = (4 cm)/(180 cm) = 1/45
__
<u>Part B</u>
For a model width of 3 cm, the scale factor is ...
model/life-size = (3 cm)/(180 cm) = 1/60
Each friend would get 3/4 of a sandwich.
We take the 8 sandwiches and decide them by six. Then we get 0.75. Then we change it to fractions.
0.75. 75
——- x 100 ——- Then we simplify.
1. 100. And get 3/4
Remember P.E.M.D.A.S
57 - 12 ÷ 4 · 3
= 57 - 3 · 3
= 57 - 9
= 48
