So the three numbers can be turned into fractions.
1/5, 1/4, and 4/20.
fractions can be turned into decimals by dividing the denominator into the numerator.
now we have 0.2 , 0.25 , and 0.2
greatest to least, the numbers are 0.25 , 0.2 , and 0.2
(both 0.2s are equal, so order of those doesn't matter)

Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
The constant ratio (23 mi)/(1 gal) tells you the number of miles is a linear function of the number of gallons.
miles = (miles/gallon) × gallons
miles = constant × gallons . . . . . a linear function of gallons
Answer:
Terry initially had £390
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the original amount is 3:7
Let the original amount Terry has be t and the original amount Faye has be f
3/7 = t/f
or simply 3f = 7t ••••••(i)
Terry putting 220 means he now has
t + 220
Faye withdrew 300
He now has f-300
These values are equal
t + 220 = f-300
f = t+220+300
f = t + 520 ••••••(ii)
Put ii into i
3(t + 520) = 7t
3t + 1560 = 7t
7t-3t = 1560
4t = 1560
t = 1560/4
t = 390
You would take 3.75 • 5, which equals 18.75!
