257 is the answer to this question
Answer:
Given
if p:q=2/3:3 and p:r=3/4:1/2, calculate the ratio p:q:r giving your answer in its simplest form
We need to find the ratio p:q:r
Given p:q = 2/3 : 3 = 2/3 / 3 = 2/9
and p : r = 3/4 : 1/2 = 3/4 / 1/2 = 3/2
Now p/q = 2/9 and p/r = 3/2
We need to make p equal numerators so we get
p/q = 2/9 x 3/3 = 6/27 and
p/r = 2/3 x 3/2 = 6/4
Therefore p : q : r = 6 : 27 : 4
Answer: The price for the computer = $1152
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first boy = F
Let the second boy = S
Let the price of computer = C
The second boy had 5/ 6 of the money the first had. I.e
S = 5/6 F
Then F = 6/5S ......(1)
The first boy had 7 /8 of the price of the computer. That is
F = 7/8C ....... (2)
Substitute F in (1) into (2)
6/5S = 7/8C
S = 5/6 × 7/8C
S = 35/48C ......(3)
Together they had $696.00 more than they need to pay. That is
F + S = C + 696 ........ (4)
Substitute equation 2 and 3 into 4
7/8C + 35/48C = C + 696
0.875C + 0.729C = C + 696
0.604C = 696
C = 696/0.604
C = 1152 dollars
Therefore, the price for the computer = $1152
Step-by-step explanation:
120 because angle a and c are the same
Your answer is 3.7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
