40:10 = 12 : Equivalent ratio

Mathematics
1 answer:

40:10=12:3


Solution:

Since
40 : 10 = 12 : X

Then we know
10/40 = X/12

Multiplying both sides by 12 cancels on the right
12 × (10/40) = (X/12) × 12
12 × (10/40) = X

Then solving for X
X = 12 × (10/40)
X = 3

Therefore
40 : 10 = 12 : 3

Digiron [165]

Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

45 pages per 1 hour and 30 minutes,  or 60 min +30 min =90 min

90 minutes / 45 pages has to be equal to an equivalent fraction where we have 300 pages

90 minutes /45 pages = ? minutes / 300 pages , multiply both sides by 300

? minutes = 90*300/45 = 600 minutes

to read 300-page book will take 600 minutes = 10 hours
