B. How can the value of the ratio (7:4) be used to find the answer in part A?

please do part B...

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

7/4 =28/x ( as the ratio should be maintained )

7x/4 = 28

x = 28*4/7

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{7}{4} = \frac{28}{x}$

$x = \frac{4}{7} \times 28 \\ x = 4 \times 4 \\ x = 16$
