The length and width of a rectangle are in a 3:5 ratio. The perimeter of the rectangle is 64. What are the length and width of the rectangle? The length is? And the width is?

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We know that the perimeter is 2L+2W. Le'ts plug in the values 3 and 5 from our ratio and see what our perimeter would be with that.

2(3)+2(5)

6+10

16

How can we get this 16 to 64?

64/16=4

So, we need to multiply this length and width by four to get 64 as our perimeter!

3*4=12

5*4=20

We can plug this into our perimeter equation

2(12)+2(20)

24+40

64

Therefore, our length is 12 and our width is 20.

Have a wonderful day! :D

the total estimated nappy use.=10,500,000

step-by-step explanation:

given that on an average the average baby uses 3528 napkins.

in a particular year 2014, the number of births were 299697 in new south wales.

rounding off the number of births to the nearest hundred thousand we have

no of birtsh = 300000

also rounding off the average usage to nearst thousand we get

average use of a baby = 3500

hence total number of nappy estimated to be used = 3500x300000

= 10,500,000

answer is 10,500,000 nappies

66.666666667%

step-by-step explanation:

divide 150 by 100

divide 100 by 1.5

there you go!
