Answer:
only the first option is equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
For example:
(4/9) x=8
Now can solve this equation multiplying each side by 9/4.
(9/4)(4/9)x=(9/4)8
x=18
To check:
(4/9)(18)=(4*18)/9=72/9=8
Answer:
Katherine: 920
Crystal: 552
Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount earned by each is 1472
The ratio of the earnings is Katherine / Crustal = 5/3
The total number of shares = 5 + 3 = 8
So the proportion for Katherine
5/8 = x / 1472 Cross multiply
8x = 5 * 1472
8x = 7360
x = 7360/8
x = 920
And the proportion for Crystal is
3/8 = x / 1472 Cross multiply
8x = 3 * 1472
8x = 4416
x = 4416 / 8
x = 552
