Answer:

1/6 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance divided = 1/2 miles

No of sections = 3

Each division must equal = 1/2/3

                             = 1/2*1/3 = 1/6 mile.

The distance between each of the signs i.e between the first and second , second and third is 1/6 of the mile.

This can be done in decimals as well

1/2 mile= 0.5 mile.

When we divide 0.5 mile by 3 we get  0.167 which is equal to 1/6 in fractions.

I think 10 cause if you were to split the number in half, 10 and 9 would come out of that, and 10 is also a bigger number. I feel that the higher number you get, the better of a chance. But that's just my opinion.

I need help on this i dont get it and i need to bring my homework by tomorrow
natita [175]

a ratio is how many X there are per Y. for example, a fraction is a ratio: 10/5 = 2 because there are 2 fives in a ten. but usually a ratio is written as x:y.

so to find these ratios, first we need to find the number of girls. 30 students-16 boys = 14 girls.

the ratio of girls to boys is 14:16 because there are 14 girls to every 16 boys. we simplify this to 7:8.

the ratio of girls to all students is 14:30. we simplify this to 7:15.

the ratio of boys to girls is 16:14, which simplifies to 8:7.

the ratio of boys to all students is 16:30, which simplifies to 8:15.
