Determine if there's a direct variation between the number and its position
I'll start by giving an illustration of how the triangle is represented using stars (*)

Represent the line number with y and it's position with x
On line 1:
y = 1, x = 1
On line 2:
y = 2, x = 3
On line 3:
y = 3, x = 6
On line 4:
y = 4, x = 10
On line 5:
y = 5, x = 15
Note that, x is gotten by calculating the accumulated number of stars while y is the line number.
Direct variation is represented by
y = kx
Or
kx = y
Where k is the constant of variation
For line 1:
Substitute 1 for y and 1 for x
k * 1 = 1
k = 1
For line 2:
Substitute 2 for y and 3 for x
k * 3 = 2
Divide through by 3
k = ⅔
Note that the values of k in both computations differ.
This implies that there's no direct variation and there's no need to check further.
4 / 5 - 2 / 3 ( taking LCM on bottom )
= ( 12 - 10 ) / 15
= 2 / 15 Ans
Answer:
240/100
Step-by-step explanation:
just multiply 24 by 10 to get hundredths
84,000,108 is in standard
