Sagot :

Answer:

1. 40 newspapers

2. 8 meters

3. P 8,000 : P 12,000

4. 100 : 150 : 200 garlands

5. 4 days

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4:8 = 20:_

20 divided by 4 = 5

8 x 5 = 40

2. _:12 = 10:15

12 x 10 = 120

120 divided by 15 = 8

3. 4 + 6 = 10

20,000 divided by 10 = 2,000

2,000 x 4 = 8,000

2,000 x 6 = 12,000

4. 2 + 3 + 4 = 9

450 divided by 9 = 50

50 x 2 = 100

50 x 3 = 150

50 x 4 = 200

5. 30:10 = 12:_

12 x 10 = 120

120 divided by 30 = 4
