Ratio and proportion
height :legnth of shadow=56:49 (man's shadow)
we assume the ratio is the same for the tower thing (obelisk)
so
56:49=x:28
conver tto fraction
56/49=x/28
times both sides by 28
1568/49=x
32=x
answer is 32ft
Answer:19
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 19 because you need to do 12*2 and then subtract 6. 24-6=19
The tower is 61.65 meters tall.
<u>SOLUTION:
</u>
Given that, a pole that is 2.5 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.47 m long.
At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that is 36.25 m long.
We have to find height of the tower.
Now, we know that,

Then, (let it be) n meter tall
36.25 long shadow
So, by cross multiplication method,

This can be written as,

Cross multiplications steps: (To find Single Variable)
- Multiply the numerator of the left-hand fraction by the denominator of the right-hand fraction.
- Multiply the numerator of the right-hand fraction by the denominator of the left-hand fraction.
- Set the two products equal to each other.
- Solve for the variable.
In this problem, we have to find the factor which will
make (1 / 10) equal to (2 / 5). Therefore we can write it as:
x (1 / 10) = 2 / 5
where x is the number of people who ate the blueberries
x = (2 / 5) / (1 / 10)
x = 4
<span>Therefore 4 people ate the blueberries.</span>
