Hey there!

The ratio 6:18 describes Joe's fish tank, certainly. But how?

Note that this ratio can be written as 6 to 18, 6/18, and 6 out of 18.

This ratio can show this: For every 6 goldfish in Joe's tank, there are 12 snails.

Great question!

Hope I helped, please feel free to comment below should you have any questions/comments/concerns!

What is 125^2/3 in simplest form? and What is \sqrt[5]({-245} ) ^{5} in simplest form?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

${ 125 }^{ \frac { 2 }{ 3 } }\\ \\ ={ \left( { 125 }^{ \frac { 1 }{ 3 } } \right) }^{ 2 }\\ \\ ={ \left( \sqrt [ 3 ]{ 125 } \right) }^{ 2 }\\ \\ ={ 5 }^{ 2 }\\ \\ =25$

This is because:

${ a }^{ \frac { m }{ n } }\\ \\ =\sqrt [ n ]{ { a }^{ m } }$

Remember that:

5 x 5 x 5 = 125

A rectangular parking lot has an area of 2/3 of a square kilometer. The width is 1/2 of a kilometer. What is the length, in kilo

jeka57 [31]

Area = length x width
replace the known information into the equation:

area = 2/3
width = 1/2

so now the formula looks like:

2/3 = 1/2 x L

to solve for L we divide both sides by 1/2

L = 2/3 / 1/2 which = 2/3 * 2/1 = 4/3 = 1 and 1/3 km
