Answer:

A. Crawled

Explanation:

You are given the sentence:

The baby crawled slowly toward her favorite toy.

Your subject/direct object in this sentence, is the baby. Next you ask yourself, what is the baby doing? Crawling. This is your verb. The next thing to do, is recognize your adverb, which in this case, would be the word slowly. This would be a descriptive adverb, that many would mistake for an adjective, but looking into the sentence, we see that the adjective is the word, favorite, as it modifies the noun, toy. An adverb modifies a noun, a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. The word slowly in this sentence is modifying the verb crawled.

How did the baby crawl? Slowly.

The ratio of Isabella's money to Shane's money is 3:11. If Isabella has $33, how much money do Shane and Isabella have together?

The ratio of Isabella’s money to Shane’s money is 3:11

Isabella has $33.

We can make a proportion to solve for how much money Shane has.
A proportion is two ratios that are set equal to each other.

Let’s call Shane’s money ‘S’

We get this proportion: 3/11 = 33/x

If we cross multiply we get:
(33) * (11) = (3) * (x)

Simplifying it, we get:
363 = (3) * (x)

Divide both sides by 3, we get:
x = 121

However, the question asks how much money they have together.

Isabella + Shane = Total
33 + 121 = $154

They have $154 together.
