6. Mary got an answer of about 5.82 when she entered 26 on her calculator and pressed the square root key. As usual, she stopped to think briefly about whether or not the answer was reasonable. Which is the most likely explanation for Mary to believe that her calculator's answer is or is not reasonable?

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1

ab will be equal to

6/20
