Nelda baked two kinds of pasta in pans. Each pan was the same size. She sliced one pan of pasta into
6 equal pieces. She sliced the other pan into 8 equal
pieces. How can the pans of pasta now be sliced so
that both pans have the same-sized pieces? Draw
on the pictures to show your work. If Nelda has
served 6 pieces from one pan so far, what fraction
of one pan has she served?

answer: 590

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl

17

step-by-step explanation:

51/3=17

thus 17 is your answer.
