Olivia and Dillon rain laps after school to train for the cricket team. The ratio of the number of laps of the number of laps Olivia rain to the number Dillion ran was 5 to 2. If Olivia ran 15 laps how many laps did Dillion run?

6 laps

Explanation:

The ratio of the number of laps of Olivia ran to the number Dillion ran

Olivia : Dillion = 5 : 2

Olivia = 5

Dillion = 2

If Olivia ran 15 laps how many laps did Dillion run?

Let x = number of laps Dillion ran

5 : 2 = 15 : x

5 / 2 = 15 / x

Cross multiplication

5*x = 2*15

5x = 30

Divide both sides by 5

x = 30/5

= 6

x = 6 laps

Therefore, Dillion ran 6 laps

hey there

use of language is very important in order to write in a good way. each literary genre has its different exploitation of language and, therefore, many differences and similarities can emerge. shakespeare's work (romeo and juliet) is a sample of a drama. its language is full of dialogue to describe the beauty of first love in people; everything it's pink color. it briefly describes fictional scenes and situations. on the other hand, the calypso borealis, by john muirs, it's narrative essay: its language is full of descriptions to describe an experience, a real experience. hyperbole is not used as in drama genre. he falls in love with discovering a real place and his direct feelings.

hope this !
