Using proportions, considering the weight of each bar and the ratio, it is found that the ship is carrying 52 gold bars.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Each bar weighs 5 kg, and the total weight is of 600 kg, hence the number of bars is given by:
n = 600/5 = 120.
The proportion of gold bars is given by:
p = 13/(13 + 17) = 13/30
Hence, out of 120 bars, the number of gold bars is given by:
nG = 120 x 13/30 = 4 x 13 = 52.

Answer:
89/13
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Multiply the denominator by the whole number
13 × 6 = 78
Step 2
Add the answer from Step 1 to the numerator
78 + 11 = 89
Step 3
Write answer from Step 2 over the denominator
89/13
Answer: 7/6
Step-by-step explanation:
If he is writing sixths, then we have multiples of 1/6.
this is:
0*(1/6) = 0
1*(1/6) = 1/6
.
.
.
5*(1/6) = 5/6 (the numer he wrote at the left of 1)
6*(1/6) = 6/6 = 1
7*(1/6) = 7/6
So the number next to 1, (at the right of 1) must be 7/6.
You also can find it by adding 1/6 to 1.
1/6 + 1 = 1/6 + 6/6 = 7/6.
