I'd say you would halve the dimensions of the uncle's deck to get the dimensions of Beni's deck

12 & 24 .

We did that already @campbell_st and got 12 x 21

Answer 11

I'm convinced that they made a mistake in the answer choices. It happens.

@amberose10, if I were in your situation, I'd pick a) then complain to the teacher.

Answer 14

a) is 8 which is 1/3 of 24

Answer 15

The only thing close enough to pick

Answer 16

the answers suggest that the ratio is uncle :beni is 3:1

Answer 17

@amberose10, are you still here?

Answer 18

I so envy this last problem. How can they make a mistake on the last problem. I bet a teacher hand-inputted these questions into a computer.

Answer 19

amber rose must be panicking right now.

Answer 20

input. @Hero

Answer 21

I've inputted enough. It's someone else's turn. At least say something relevant to the problem and the answer choices.

Answer 22

i asked my mom ... i know for a fact its not 18 . bc i picked that & it was incorrect .

Answer 23

And you didn't pick a)

Answer 24

Wow, you amaze me. I said pick a) not 18

Answer 25

I keep telling you that NONE of the answer choices are correct.

Answer 26

Lol.

Answer 27

But you just sit there in silence like you don't believe me.

Answer 28

I basically have everyone from OS looking at this question. If someone actually had an objection, they would have posted it by now.

Answer 29

I understand . i will tell the teacher .

Answer 30

You should trust me a little more. It's not like I haven't been helping you.

Answer 31

i picked 18 before you said pick A . It was a timed test .

Answer 32

@amberose10 , no one said pick 18. I don't know why you did that.

Answer 33

Anyway, it doesn't matter because the teacher will recognize that the last one is a mistake. btw, I suspected you were taking a test the whole time.

Answer 34

yeah sorry !!

Answer 35

You realize you could be suspended for admitting taking a test on OS?

Answer 36

No . i mean i took a different test while figuring out the study sheet on here . i took a drivers liscence course test . i never asked those questions
