The ratio of the number of text messages sent by Diego to the number of text messages sent by his sister is 3 to 4. Diego sent 18 text messages. How many more text messages did his sister send?

His sister sent 6 more messages than Diego.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of Diego's messages to his sister's messages = 3 : 4

Text messages sent by Diego = 18

Text messages sent by his sister = x

Ratio = 18 : x

It is a proportional relationship,

3 : 4 :: 18 : x

Product of extremes = Product of means

3x = 18*4

3x = 72

Difference = 24 - 18 = 6

Therefore,

His sister sent 6 more messages than Diego.

step-by-step explanation:

the true statements are:

r = set of real numbers

n = set of natural numbers, 1,2,

w = n u{0} = {0,1,}

unless you made a typo, the answers are both a and c.

step-by-step explanation:

1.5/3 is .5 whereas 3/9 is .3333333 not proportional

22/33 is .66666 and 4/6 is also .66666 proportional

2/4 is .5 whereas 142/213 is .66666 not proportional

14/7 is 2 and 7/3.5 is also 2 proportional

you could've also checked it by doing this simple division:

if the larger fraction divides with the smaller fraction to equal 1, it is proportional. so let me show you what i mean:

when i divide 22/33 by 4/6 i get 1, so we know it is proportional, and it is the same with 14/7 and 7/3.5. now if i divide 3/9 by 1.5/3 i get .66666 so therefore we know it is not proportional.

there are many ways to do this so i wanted to show you some possible ways.
