Algebra.Com's Answer #371544 by ptaylor(2198) You can put this solution on YOUR website! Well, Dan shovels at the rate of 1/45 driveway per min \n" ); document.write( "Janice shovels at the rate of 1/75 driveway per min \n" ); document.write( "soooo, ratio of Dan's shoveling time to Janice's shoveling time =(1/45)/(1/75)= (1/45)(75/1)=75/45=5/3. In other words, Dan can shovel 5 driveways to Janice's 3.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps---ptaylor \n" ); document.write( " |
