3 0

Answer:

Anna 9 and Betty 15

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio , 3 + 5 = 8 parts

divide number of sweets by 8 to find value of one part of the ratio

24 ÷ 8 = 3 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

3 parts = 3 × 3 = 9

5 parts = 5 × 3 = 15

Anna gets 9 sweets and Betty gets 15

Allisa [31]

Answer:

The area of the figure is 28 units².

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of the full rectangle, ignoring the triangle.

$a = lw \\ a = 4 \times 8 = 32$

Then, find the area of the triangle:

$a = \frac{bh}{2} \\ a = \frac{2 \times 4}{2} \\ a = 4$

Finally, subtract:

$32 - 4 = 28$
