Answer: 3 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 48 kids in Elm street.

12 of them are boys, then the number of girls will be:

48 - 12 = 36

So there are 12 boys and 36 girls.

Then the ratio of girls to boys is 36:12

We can divide both numbers by the same number and we will get an equivalent ratio, if we divide by 12 in both sides, we have:

36/12 : 12/12

3 : 1

Then the ratio is 3 to 1.

25 = P

So the cost of one pass = $25

Professional plumbers suggest that a sewer pipe should be sloped 0.25 inch for every foot. find the recommended slope for a sewe

erik [133]

We have been given that professional plumbers suggest that a sewer pipe should be sloped 0.25 inch for every foot.

Therefore, we can find the slope as:

$\text{Slope}=\frac{0.25\text{ inch}}{\text{1 foot}}=\frac{0.25\text{ inch}}{\text{12 inch}}$

$\text{Slope}=\frac{0.25}{12}=\frac{25}{1200}=\frac{1}{48}$

Therefore, the recommended slope for a sewer pipe is $\frac{1}{48}$
