I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST FOR ANSWER WITH EXPLANATION
The first floor of a house consists of a kitchen, playroom, and dining room. The areas of the kitchen, playroom, and dining room are in the ratio 4:3:2. The combined area of these three rooms is 189 square feet. What is the area of the playroom?

Respuesta :


The combined area of these three rooms is 189 ft².
Therefore we have the equation
4x + 3x + 2x = 189
9x = 189 |:9
x = 21 ft²
area of the kitchen = 4x = 4(21) = 84 ft²
area of the playroom = 3x = 3(21) = 63 ft²
area of the dinning room = 2x = 2(21) = 42 ft²
