Answer:

£32 : £40

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 4 + 5 = 9 parts

Divide the amount by 9 to find the value of one part of the ratio

£72 ÷ 9 = £8 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, then

4 parts = 4 × £8 = £32

5 parts = 5 × £8 = £40

Then

£72 in the ratio 4 : 5 is £32 : £40

Solve.E6xplain how you get the answer without using a calculator 6/3 + 1/2

fiasKO [112]

I'm just gonna assume that 6/3 and 1/2 are fractions.

First you have to find common denominators for the fractions to be added.

The first common denominator divisible by both the denominators is 6.

So 2x3=6 and 1x3=3

and 3x2+6 and 6x2+12

so that would be 12/6 + 3/6

Then you would proceed to add both of the numerators together which are 12 and 3.

To get a total of 15/6. You can also simplify that into a mixed number 2 1/2.

Answer:

<h2>Total yards of ribbon bought is 6.993yards of ribbon</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pieces of ribbon James bought for his craft project = 10pieces. If each pieces of ribbon were 2.1feet long, the total number of feet for 10ribbons is expressed as;

$= 10 * 2.1\\= 21feets$

Converting 21 feets to yards;

1 feet = 0.333yard

21feets = x

x = $21feet * 0.333\\= 6.993yards$

Total yards of ribbon bought is 6.993yards of ribbon
