Answer:
c.1
Step-by-step explanation:
5: 15 x:3
a:b c:d The ratios have to stay in proportion. So if we multiply a and b by a certain number they will equal c and d. We just don't know what that number is yet. Call it something.
a* something = c and b* something =d
5 * something = x
15* something = 3
Solve for the unknown number we are multiplying by
Divide each side by 15
15/15 * something =3/15
something = 1/5
Now that we know what we are multiplying by, we can solve for x
So 5 * something = x
5* 1/5 = x
1 =x
Answer:
c.1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we must look at the two last ratio numbers of "5:15 and x:3".
This would be 15 and 3. 15 ÷ 3 = 5. So, now since the numbers were divided by 5, we then must divide the first digit (5) by 5.
5 ÷ 5 = 1
Therefore, 1 would be the correct answer.
