Answer:
5/8 is smaller.
Step-by-step explanation:
A ratio is just a different type of fraction, a 5:8 ratio means 5/8 which is 0.625. A 7:9 ratio equals 7/9 which is 0.777777
Then to compare them you see which is smaller or bigger.
0.77777 is bigger than 0.625 so we know that 0.77777777 which was the 7:9 ratio is the bigger one.
Step One
Calculate the number of feet traveled in 1 rotation.
Formula
C = π*d
P = 3.14
d = 9 inches = 9/12 feet = 3/4 of a foot.
C = 3.14 * 3/4 = 2.355 So that means that every time the tire turns around 1 complete turn, the distance traveled on the ground is 2.355 feet.
Step Two
Figure out the number of revolutions.
1 revolution = 2.355 feet
x revolutions = 300 feet.
1/x = 2.355/ 300 Cross multiply
2.355 feet * x = 1 rev * 300 feet
2.355 x = 300 rev Divide by 2.355
x = 300 / 2.355
x = 127.39 revolutions. <<<< Answer
Mark has 32 marbles and John has 96 marbles. If you add the marbles together they both have a total of 128.
