So basically 42=x times 64 or 42=64x where you want x to be represented as a fraction so just don't simplify as much
42=64x
divide both sdies by 64
42/64=64/64x
42/64=1x
x=42/64
simplify
42/64=21/32
the answer is 21/32 in simplest form
The wide of the model should be approximately 5.194 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
You are building a scale model of a fishing boat
- The boat is 62 ft long
- The boat is 23 ft wide
- The model will be 14 in long
We need to find how wide should it be
∵ The boat is 62 feet long
∵ The model of the boat is 14 inches long
- That means 14 inches represents 62 feet
By using the ratio method
→ Actual (ft) : Model (in)
→ 62 : 14
→ 23 : x
By using cross multiplication
∵ 62 × x = 23 × 14
∴ 62 x = 322
- Divide both sides by 62 to find x
∴ x ≅ 5.194
∵ x represents the wide of the model
∴ The wide of the model is approximately 5.194 inches
The wide of the model should be approximately 5.194 inches

<u>Solution-</u>
Let's assume, the rate of interest of $8000 is x%,
then the rate of interest of $17000 is (x+0.3x) =1.3x%
Interest earned by $8000,
Interest earned by $17,000,
According to the question,
∴ Rate of interest of $8000 is 1.96% and rate of interest of $17000 is (1.3×1.96) =2.55%
