Ratios and proportions tie into each other. A ratio in real life would be basically comparing two quantities, as a proportion would be solving for the similar ratio or the equal ratio to another.
Answer: i think you would have to multiply
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 2b = 3g
Step-by-step explanation:
This is quite basic to solve, below is a Step by step explanation:
from the given question we have that;
- A fire hydrant with a blue cap provides water at a rate of 1,500 gallons per minute.
i.e b = 1500 gallons per minute
- A fire hydrant with a green cap provides water at a rate of 1,000 gallons per minute.
g = 1000 gallons per minute.
Our questions tells us to write the equation which relates the flow of water from the blue hydrant, b, to the flow from the green hydrant, g.
ANS:
Since flow from blue hydrant b = 1500 gallons per minute, we have that
b = 3 * 500
b = 3 * 1000/2 g
b = 3/2 g
equation gives 2b = 2g

Answer:
42 child and 70 adult
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = number of adult tickets
c = number of child tickets
a+c = 112
2.25a + 1.75c = 231
Solve the first equation for a
a = 112-c
Substitute this into the second equation
2.25(112-c) + 1.75c = 231
Distribute
252 - 2.25c +1.75c = 231
Combine like terms
252 -.5c = 231
Subtract 252 from each side
252-252 -.5c = 231-252
-.5c = -21
Divide each side by -.5
-.5c/-.5 = -21/ -.5
c = 42
Now can find a
a = 112-c
a = 112-42
a = 70
