dude:

For the first set of shapes, how do you get from 2 to 8?

bill533:

4

dude:

Right so multiply 3 times 4 to get the x value for the first set

bill533:

12

dude:

Right

bill533:

the first one is 12 correct

dude:

For the second one, how do you get from 11 to 44? Remember we have to compare the similar looking sides

bill533:

4

dude:

Yes, so now multiply 4 times 4

bill533:

16

dude:

That is x for your second second set

dude:

For the third set you should divide 91 by 7 (We are basically trying to find how many times 7 goes into 91) \(7\times x = 91\) \(x=\frac{91}{7}\)

bill533:

13

dude:

Right now multiply 11 and 13 That is your third x

bill533:

143

dude:

Yes

dude:

Now do you know how to solve for the last x?

bill533:

i think it's 8 divided by 14 ?

dude:

Not quite

dude:

How do you get from 1 to 8?

bill533:

8

dude:

(You want to compare similar looking sides) small-small large-large

dude:

So you want to do 112 divided by 8

bill533:

14

dude:

Right

bill533:

thank you dude for your help
