Question

Gershon created a pattern using shapes. He used 6 circles and 9 squares in his pattern. He created a second pattern with the same ratio of circles to squares. If there are 10 circles in his new pattern, how many squares are there?

Answer 1

Explanation:

circle=6

square=9

circle =10

square=? or x

ratio

6:10::9:x

product of mean =product of extreme

6x =9×10

6x=90

x=90/6

x=15

so there will be 15 square
