To solve this relationship simply make them equal to each other and find the correct value to multiply both the top and cotton numbers and solve, 
In this case because of the initial ratio of 1:9, if the bonsai ficus is 6 then 54 inches would be the full size.
        
             
        
        
        
Act like it's a rectangle. The height is 10 because 7+3=10 and the length it 27. Multiply them for the are and you get 270 in. Then multiply 6x7=42 because that's the are of the space that is missing from the imaginary rectangle. Multiply by 2 (84 in.) because there are 2 missing spaces and subtract from 270= 186 inches is your answer.
        
                    
             
        
        
        
1 2/6 = 6/6 + 2/6
answer is A.
----------------------
5/8 - 4/8 = 1/8
answer is B 1/8 lb
---------------------------
1 6/8 = 14/8
1 3/8 = 11/8
14/8 + 11/8 = 25/8 = 3 1/8
answer is C. 3 1/8 miles
-----------------------
1 7/100 + 4 6/10 = 5 67/100 (5 and 67/100)
------------------------------------
3/4(4) =3
1/4(2) = 1/2
3 - 1/2 = 6/2 - 1/2 = 5/2 = 10/4
answer is C. 10/4 ft
