The ratio of dogs to cats
7 to 2
Let’s look at the answers and cross out some of them

A seems valid, 7/2= 3.5

So B is wrong because 7 is the number of dogs not the number of total animals.

C is wrong because this is a ratio, and if the ratio is 7:2 then there could be 14:4 dogs and cats. 14 — 4 isn’t 5. We are not certain there are exactly this much dogs and this much cats.

D) For every 7 dogs there are 2 cats. 7/2 is dogs divided by cats, while 2/7 is cats divided by dogs

So the correct answer is A

trapecia [35]

The circumference of a circle of radius r is

C=2\pi r

So, in your case, the circumference is

C=2\cdot \pi \cdot 21 = 42\pi

The circumference is actually the length of the "perimeter", so the answer to questions 1 and 2 looks the same actually
