Question

5:9 is a ratio, if we increase first element of the ratio up to 40, what will be the second element?

Answer 1

Answer:

first element ratio up 5/9=40 22.22ans

Answer 2

72

Explanation:

5:9 is a ratio, if we increase first element of the ratio up to 40

       5/9 = 40/x

       1/9 = 8/x

        x = 9*8

        x = 72

Therefore, the second element will be equal to 72

While solving this mathematical problem we will assume that the final ratio will be equivalent to the initial ratio.

Now, we have to calculate the value of the multiplication factor.

Multiplication factor = Final antecedent/Initial antecedent = 40/5 = 8

New consequent = Initial consequent × Multiplication factor = 9×8 = 72

[Here, antecedent is the first term and the consequent is the second term.]
