Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
where is exercise 4-9?
or at least give us the equation
The amount of qts to use for 15 gals is 0.6qts
Proportion and ratio
Ratio are written as quotient of 2 integers
Given that 2 qts for every 50 gal of water, this is written as;
2qts = 50 gals
In order to calculate for 15gal, we will have:
x = 15gals
Take the ratio
2/x = 50/15
50x = 30
x = 3/5
x = 0.6qts
Hence the amount of qts to use for 15 gals is 0.6qts

We want to get rid of the stuff in the denomenator
gcd of the denomenator is 2x
but wait, we can get rid of the deonmenator in the numerator by multiplying by 4x
muliplty the whole thing by 4x/4x
we get
The first way is to cross multiply
4/5 = 28/x
4x = 5*28
4x = 140
4x/4 = 140/4
x = 35 which is the answer
=============================================
The second method is to note the denominators 4 and 28, and to ask yourself "what times 4 gets me 28?". The answer being 7, so 7*4 = 28. If you multiply top and bottom of the fraction 4/5 by 7, then you end up with 7*4 = 28 up top and 7*5 = 35 down below. This is another way of seeing how 4/5 = 28/35
Either way, the answer is x = 35
