Answer: For a fence that has 18 posts he needs 36 rails.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to use proportions:

Each section use 3 vertical fence post and 6 horizontal rails

The proportion is = 3 post /6 rails

For 18 posts:

18 posts / x rails.

3 /6 = 18 /x

Solving for x:

x = 18 / (3/6)

x = 36 rails

For a fence that has 18 posts he needs 36 rails.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Question 18<br> Decrease £4600 by 20%
NISA [10]

Answer:

3680

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we would subtract. But, first we have to find the percent. But, we all use calculators so, it is 920. Saves us a lot of time.

4600 - 920 = 3680

Therefore your answer is 3680

Hope this helps!
