Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
L = 5
w = 3
Formula
Area = L*w
Solution
Area = 3 * 5
Area = 15
Now double both the width and the Length.
New Length = 2*5 = 10
New Width = 2 * 3 = 6
Area = New Length * New Width
Area = 10 * 6
Area = 60
Answer (look at the choices)
The old rectangle has an area of 15. The new Rectangle has an area of 60. If you double 15, do you get 60. No, so the answer is not A
The new rectangle is 60. If you halve it, do you get 15. No so the answer is Not B
C is the answer
D is you multiply 8 * 15, do you get 60? No so the answer is not D
Answer:
This ratio means for every boy there are two girls.
There are twice as many girls as there are boys. Backwards, it's there are half as many boys as there are girl.
The simplified ratio is found by reducing the ratio to the lower terms.
5/10 = 1/2
Both sides on the unsimplified ratio are division by 5. When done, it became 1/2.
The answer is a because its 125 divided by 4
