The general equation is that for every red tile, there must be 12 blue ones.
Algebraically this is expressed as b = 12r where r is red and b is blue. Your teacher might like you to express it as y = 12x where y is blue and x is red. The meaning is the same.
For beginners it might be easier to say b = 12r. So if you have 15 reds then r = 15
b = 12 * r
b = 12 * 15
b = 180 blue tiles.
Lets consider SAM's age is 'x' and Hank's age is 'y'
So as per given data Sam's age is 5/3 times of Hank's age
so x = 5/3 * y
3x = 5y --> equation 1
and also sum of their ages is 24
so, x + y = 24
we need to find Hank's age (y)
so x = 24 - y
Now replace x value in equation 1
3(24-y) = 5y
72-3y = 5y
72 = 3y+5y
8y= 72
y= 72/8
y = 9 years.
So the Hank's age is 9 years

Some basic dimensions could be 4x1 and 3x2
Answer 2.85
On rounding to nearest hundredths, we get than 2.85 as at thousandths place, there is 9 which is greater than 5, so 1 is added to the hundredth value.
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2x2/5=2/10
multiply both denominators by each other, then with numerator.
