Using proportions, it is found that the thickness of the icing between the layers, in inches, is of:

E 1 inch

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.

In this problem, there are six layers, each measuring 1.25 inches tall, hence the height of these layers is:

6 x 1.25 = 7.5 inches

Then the height of the icing between the layers is of:

13.5 - 7.5 = 6 inches

Six layers, hence each icing is of:

6/6 = 1 inch

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

1st= 47/7 or 6.71

2nd= 48/7 or 6.857

Step-by-step explanation:

1st number =X and 2nd number = Y

According to question, X+7=2Y

20+Y=4X

X=2Y-7 (from 1st condition)

putting in it second

20+Y=4(2Y-7)

20+Y=8Y-28

20+28=8Y-Y

48=7Y

Y=48/7

so X=2(48/7)-7

=96-49/7

47/7
