no. of boys : no.of girls
100 : 140
to get the simplest ratio you gotta divide both with a common factor
Because both 100 and 140 share a common factor of 20
the simplest ratio will be
100/20 : 140/20
5:7
5:7 is the simplest ratio
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I can see that the equation given above is a linear equation since y and x are the only variable and the degree is one. The standard form of a linear equation is written as:
Ax + By = C
We write the given equation into standard form as follows:
<span>y - 2 = 2(x - 3)
</span><span>y - 2 = 2x - 6
y -2x = -6 +2
y - 2x = -4
2x - y = 4</span>
Answer:
If we want our ratio to stay the same (3 to 5), we'll need to pair a set of 3 blue tacks with every set of 5 red tacks. In a group of 50, we can make 10 groups of 5 red tacks, so we'll also need 10 groups of 3 blue tacks, which gives us a total of 30 blue tacks
