Answer:
2 : 3
Step-by-step explanation:
A disc has a diameter of 21 cm while a mini disc has a diameter of 14cm. Write the ratio of the mini disc diameter to the disc diameter.
Answer: Let the diameter of the mini disc be
while the diameter of the disc be
. To get the ratio of the mini disc diameter to the disc diameter, we just simply have to divide the diameter of the mini disc by the diameter of the disc and then represent the fraction in ratio form. The ratio of the disc diameters is given by:
Ratio of the mini disc diameter to the disc diameter = Diameter of mini disc / diameter of disc
Ratio of the mini disc diameter to the disc diameter = 
Ratio of the mini disc diameter to the disc diameter = 2 : 3
Let's look at work rates per minute.
Together they can paint the wall in x minutes.
Working together, in 1 minute, they do 1/x of the job.
The student who paints the wall in 16 minutes does 1/16 of the job in 1 minute.
The student who paints the wall in 24 minutes does 1/24 of the job in 1 minute.
Together, they do 1/16 + 1/24 of the job in 1 minute, but from above, we see that together, they do 1/x of the job in 1 minute, so 1/16 + 1/24 must equal 1/x. That gives us our equation.
1/16 + 1/24 = 1/x
1/16 * 3/3 + 1/24 * 2/2 = 1/x
3/48 + 2/48 = 1/x
5/48 = 1/x
x = 48/5 = 9.6
Answer: It takes them 9.6 minutes, or about 10 minutes to do the job together.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Similar figures have sides in the same ratio
169/1.3 = 17/x
x = 17×1.3/169
x = 0.131 m
