A television time slot has 4 minutes of commercials for every 11 minutes of programming. This rate is constant. If there are 16 minutes of commercials, how long is the television program? 1 point

44 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a proportion

There are 4 minutes of commercials for 11 minutes of programming, and 16 minutes of commercials for x minutes of programming

4/11=16/x

Cross multiply

4*x=11*16

4x=176

Divide both sides by 4

x=44

So, for 16 minutes of commercials, the program is 44 minutes long

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
