The ratio that compares 36 social media posts to 16 social media posts in fractional notation is:

\(\frac{36}{16}\)

To simplify this fraction to lowest terms, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4:
\[
\frac{36}{16} = \frac{36 \div 4}{16 \div 4} = \frac{9}{4}
\]

So the simplified improper fraction is \(\frac{9}{4}\).

So the simplified improper fraction is \(\frac{9}{4}\).
Write the ratio 12:36 as an equivalent ratio of x:3.(1 point)
$$
To find an equivalent ratio of x:3, we need to determine the value of x.

We can set up a proportion using the given ratio 12:36:

\(\frac{x}{3} = \frac{12}{36}\).

To solve for x, we can cross-multiply and solve the resulting equation:

36x = 12 * 3
36x = 36
x = 1.

Therefore, the equivalent ratio of 12:36 as x:3 is 1:3.

120=80x
1 over 20 is equal to 80 over x

801=20x
80 over 1 is equal to 20 over x

20x=180
20 over x is equal to 1 over 80

201=80x
To write a proportion representing how long an employee must work to make $80, we can set up the following proportion using fractional notation:

\(\frac{20}{1} = \frac{80}{x}\)

Therefore, the correct proportion is:

\(\frac{20}{1} = \frac{80}{x}\)
