Are the ratios 40 to 12 and 120 to 36 equivalent?
If you mean 40 to 12 and 120 to 36 then they are both equivalent and in their lowest terms they are equivalent to 10 to 3
What is the area in terms of x of a rhombus with one diagonal that is 4 times the other diagonal?
Diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular so the product is the area. If x is the smaller diagonal, the longer is 4x, and the area if 4x2.
7 is to 35 as 5 is to?
7/35 = 5/x You have a proportion here. A proportion is a statement that two ratios are equal. The numbers that form a proportion are called the terms of proportion. There is a special relationship between the terms, called the cross products property. In the proportion that you have, 7 and x are called the extremes of the proportion, and 35 and 5 are called the means. In a proportion, the product of the means equals to the product of the extremes. So, 7/35 = 5/x (7)(x) = (35)(5) 7x = 175 7x/7 = 175/7 x = 25 Thus 7 is to 35 as 5 is to 25.
What is the difference between cubic centimeters and centimeters?
Cubic centimeters measure volume. Centimeters measure length. Think in terms of the difference in measuring how much milk you want to buy compared to how tall you are.
What is the ratio as a fraction in lowest terms for 11 hours to 3 days compared in hours?
11 hours : 3 days = 11 hours : 72 days = 11:72. As a fraction, that is 11/72
How do you compare ratios-?
To compare ratios, compare the products of the outer terms by the inner terms.
How are ratios classified?
Ratios are often classified using the following terms: profitability ratios (also known as operating ratios), liquidity ratios, and solvency ratios.
What is the difference between equal ratios and equivalent ratios?
To write equal ratios multiply both terms by the same number or divided both terms. For example, 2/ 9 is a ratio equal ratio will be 4/18. There is no difference between equal ratios and equivalent ratios.
What does it mean when the terms in a ratio are equal?
equivalent ratios
When are 2 ratios equal?
The two ratios are said to be equal when even if we multiply both terms by the same number or divided both terms , the equivalent fraction or simplest fraction is the same.
Which engine is the most efficient in terms of compression ratios?
Diesel engine
Can ratios be reduced to lowest terms?
Yes, they can.
What is the lowest terms of 24?
Fractions and ratios sometimes need to be reduced to lower terms. Numbers never do. In fact, "lowest terms" is meaningless when you're talking about a number.
What are three different lowest terms in the ratio 34?
3 to 4 is the lowest terms of the ratios 6 to 8, 9 to 12 and 12 to 16.
How many sides will a 40 diagonals have?
If the polygon has n sides, it has n*(n - 3)/2 diagonals So, n(n - 3)/2 = 40 or n(n - 3)= 80 for which there is no solution. The question has no answer in terms of plane geometry.
Logical or operator can be compared to what in terms of precedence?
The logical OR operator can be compared to ____ in terms of precedence.
How do you calculate the ratio of consecutive terms?
If the nth term is Tn, the ratios of consecutive terms are Tn+1/Tn for n = 1, 2, 3, ... This will be a constant only for geometric sequences.
