OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks alright

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope not 5 to 2 misread

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

no convert cm to mm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

^^^

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

1 cm = 10 mm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

so 150/10=15 cm

OpenStudy (mathmale):

One of these two measurements is in mm, the other in cm. You must convert ONE of these units of measurements to the other before comparing the two measurements. Which one do you want to convert?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

60x 10?

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

15:60=1:4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

so you are making a ratio of the two

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15-60

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

so its 15 cm to 60 cm

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

then simplify so 1 to 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

60/3? and 15/3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5 and 30?

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

60 can be divided by 15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):
