Answer:
63
Step-by-step explanation:
the numbers are in ratio 7 : 9 = 7x : 9x ( x is a multiplier )
given the sum of the numbers = 112 , then
7x + 9x = 112 , that is
16x = 112 ( divide both sides by 16 )
x = 7 , then
9x = 9 × 7 = 63 ← value of larger number
The way to solve this is take 32/16, and you get 2. This means that you get 2 kiwis per dollar. So, if Lisa has $6, then she can buy 12 kiwis.
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
Opposite sides are congruent at parallelograms. So x+16 must be equal to 2x+5. Solve the equation;
2x+5 = x+16
x = 11 .
