Given:
Jerome ate 1/2 of the sandwich , Kevin ate 1/3 of the sandwich, and Seth ate the rest.
To find:
The ratio of jerome's share to kevin's share to seth's share.
Solution:
Jerome ate 1/2 of the sandwich. So,
Jerome's share =
Kevin ate 1/3 of the sandwich. So,
Kevin's share =
Seth ate the rest. So,
Seth's share =
=
=
The ratio of jerome's share to kevin's share to seth's share is:
To simplify the ratio multiply the ratio by 6.
Therefore, the ratio of jerome's share to kevin's share to seth's share is 3:2:1.
So the formula to workout the area of a rectangle is height X width
so 11/3 x 5/8
which is 55/24 ft if they want a mixed number then... 2
hope this helps
