Answer:
1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
120/1080 can be simplified to 1/9
So assuming that the total =27
r+b=27
r=-5+3b
r=3b-5
subsitute 3b-5 for r in first equation
3b-5+b=27
4b-5=27
add 5
4b=32
divide by 4
b=8
subsitute
b+r=27
8+r=27
subtracct 8
r=19
red=19
blue=8
Answer:
120 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance the gravel covers is the total distance times the percentage that the gravel covers
We know the gravel covers 66 ft and the percentage is 55%
distance gravel = total distance * percentage
66 = total distance * 55%
66 = total distance *.55
Divide each side by .55
66/.55 = total distance *.55/.55
120 = total distance
