A teacher takes 5 children on a field trip to a geological museum. As a souvenir, the group receives a bag of stones. When the teacher divides the stones evenly among the children, each child receives exactly 24. If 6 children had been present, how many stones would each child have received?

20

Step-by-step explanation:

You do 24 times 5 to find out how many stones were in all. Which is 120. Then you take 120 and divide it by 6 students which is 20.

40% off the regular price is the correct answer.

step-by-step explanation:

c.   x=2.4cm

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
