<span>What you do is just multiply $56.53 by 1.17. That represents 117% (100% for the meal and 17% for the tip).
Hope that helps! You should get $66.1401, but since you cant have a hundredth of a penny, its just $66.14. :)</span>
No, in order to do the correct ratio she would have needed to add 4.5 pints to 3 pints because if you divide 9:6 by 2 it is 4.5:3 not 4:3
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
If all the figures are similar, we'll have to shrink them at the same rate as the rest.
The ratio here is 2/5. So,
2/5 = 6.4/16
2/5 = x/10
x=4
The lengths of the rectangles are 7 and 12 respectively. Form the ratio 7/12. The widths of the rects. are x and 5 respectively. Form the ratio x/5. Now equate these two ratios:
7 x
--- = ---
12 5
Solve this for x. One way to do this would be to cross-multiply, obtaining 12x = 35, and solving this result for x. x will be a fraction. Write the numerator and denominator in the boxes given.
