We can bring the ratios to a similar form, because 2:5 is the same as 4:10 (we can mupltiply rations by the same number)
so one ratio is 4:10 and the other is 4:15 and the difference is is 75 beads
in this ratio, we can see each number corresponding to a "unit" of beads: that means that what changed is that Patricia now has 5 more such groups (15-10=5), and since she has 75 beads more each unit must be 75/5=15.
so afterwards (and before) Karen had 4 such units, that is 60, and Patricia before had 10 such units, that is 150.
Answer:2
Step-by-step explanation:
We start by multiplying 5 x 2 to get 10 then subtraction to take away 8 from 10 thus giving us the answer of . Hope this helps!
Three times the variable m minus four is equal to fourteen.
Another way could be:
Four less than three multiplied by m is equivalent to fourteen.
The first way I put it is simpler but if you really want to impress your teacher then I suggest going with the second way.
Also if you are looking to solve the equation then it would be:
3m - 4 = 14
+4 +4
------------
3m = 18
----- -----
3 3
m = 5
Hope that helped :-)
last one because you can solve it to many way6s
