Answer:
x = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
The parallel lines divide the segments proportionally.
x/27 = 28/36
x = 27(28/36) . . . . multiply by 27 (in your head: (3·9)(4·7)/(4·9) = 3·7)
x = 21
<span>The proportion of clay uses is 3/8 (Three Eighths). That is 3 lbs. of clay to every 8 vases. This is determined by the first given proportion 3 lbs./8 vases and confirmed by the second. To prove that is the case you divide the second ration by the first numerator:
9 divided by 3 = 3 and 24 divided by 3 = 8. So the proportion for 9/24 is still 3/8. This can also be used to increase the number of vases made. For example if 40 vases need to be made:
we divide 40 by the numerator 8 = 5. So we need 5 portions of 3 to make 40 vases. 5 times 3 = 15. So the 15 lbs. of clay is needed for 40 vases.</span>
