<span>"How many rectangles can u make with 20 cubes"
The answer is 4</span>
One number is six times as large as a certain smaller number.
i.e., Y = 6x
Answer is 6x
Here is the formula for finding a partitioning point:
x=x1+k(x2-x1), y=y1+k(y2-y1)
k is the ratio of the segment from the beginning point to the partitioning : the whole segment. In this case, k=AP:AB=5/16
so x=1+(5/16)*(-2-1)=1/16
y=6+(5/16)(-3-6)=51/16
so the answer is (-1/16, 51/16)
Please double check my calculation by yourself.
refer to this website for the formula and how to find k:
"This ratio is called k, and is determined by writing the numerator over the sum of the numerator and the denominator of the original ratio."
