Answer:
initial speed: 240 m/h
Step-by-step explanation:
48 m/h is the current speed which is the 20% of X
x (20 / 100) = 48
20x = 4800
x = 4800/20
x = 240 m/h

Answer:
9, the sum of the numbers given in the ratio
Step-by-step explanation:
The reduced ratio 2 : 7 means that two parts correspond to one length and 7 parts correspond to the other length. That is, there are a total of 2+7 = 9 parts in the full length of the segment.
It is convenient to think of the line segment as being divided into 9 equal parts.

<em>Additional comments</em>
It is often helpful to consider the total number of "ratio units" in a given ratio. For example, in this problem, the shorter segment is 2/9 of the whole, and the longer one is 7/9 of the whole.
It can also be useful to consider what a "ratio unit" represents. If the whole segment is 27 inches long, then each of the 9 ratio units will represent 3 inches, for example. This means the division 2:7 is 2(3 in):7(3 in) = 6 in : 21 in.
