Excellent!
Incorrect
A ratio compares quantities of the same type given in the same units.First, add the ratios to get the total of the parts.`3+7` `=` `10` Convert the ratios into fractions of the total parts.`3:7` `=` `3/(10):7/(10)` Finally, multiply the ratios to the total value.`3/(10)``times600` `:` `7/(10)``times600` Multiply both sides by `600` `(1800)/(10)` `:` `(4200)/(10)` Evaluate `180` `:` `420` We can check by adding the ratios in our answer and the result will be the total value (`$600`).`180` `:` `420` `180+420` `=` `600` `$180:$420` -
