40:10 = 12 : Equivalent ratio

1 answer:

5 0

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

Two cars, 540 kilometers apart, begin driving toward each other on a long, straight highway. one car travels 75 kilometers pe

Elodia [21]

One car travels at a speed of 75 kilometers per hour and the other car travels at a speed of 105 kilometers per hour.

Since both the cars are travelling towards each other their combined speed will be: 75+105=180 km/h.

Now, since the distance between the cars to start with is 540 km. Therefore, the time taken before the cars collide is:

$t=\frac{540}{180} =3$ hours.

Now, the speed of the canary is 100 km/h.

Therefore, the Canary flies flies for (100 km/h)x(3 hours) = 300 km before the cars collide.
