Step-by-step explanation:
sum the parts of the ratio, 4 + 5 = 9 parts
Divide the amount by 9 to find the value of one part of the ratio
£540 ÷ 9 = £60 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , thus
4 parts = 4 × £60 = £240 ← Alvin's share
5 parts = 5 × £60 = £300 ← Simon's share
× £240 = £120
× £300 = £30
Theo receives £120 + £30 = £150 , which as a fraction is
( divide numerator/ denominator by 30 )
= ← in simplest form
Answer: The answer to your question is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we will use proportions. We will compare the largest right triangle and the medium size triangle.
Medium triangle Large triangle
hypotenuse y 9 + 3
adjacent size 9 y
- Write the proportions
y/9 = (9 + 3)/y
-Solve for y
y² = 9(12)
y² = 108
y =
-Find the prime factors of 108
108 2
54 2
27 3
9 3
3 3
1
then, 108 = 2² 3³
-Expressthe root as fractional exponents
2²/² 3²/² 3¹/²
-Simplification
2(3)(3)¹/²
-Result
