fifteen:five::nine:_ _ _ _ _
i can't figure it out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and it has to start with scr,spr,str,thr.
three
i got it
the answer if three
fifteen divided by three is 5
nine divided by three is: what?
THREE 3!!!
three..? i think atleast that's what i put on my home work sheet like that??..pretty sure im right!!!!?
I did not think of that this way
To solve this analogy, you need to understand the pattern between the words and identify the relationship between the numbers and the word segments. Let's break down the analogy:
fifteen : five
The word "fifteen" is composed of two parts: "fif" and "teen". The number 15 is divided into two parts: 5 and 10 (where 5 is related to the word "five").
The pattern seems to be dividing the number into two parts and relating them to the segments of a word. Now we need to apply this pattern to the number 9.
To find a word that starts with "scr," "spr," "str," or "thr," we can try combining the first segment ("scr" in this case) with the second part of the number (which is 9 in this analogy).
So, let's consider the word "scr" and the number 9. We divide 9 into two parts: 5 and 4. Since we don't have a word segment that starts with "scr" and ends with "five," we need to think of another option.
Let's try the word segment "scr" with the second part of the number, which is 4. Combining "scr" with 4, we get "scrag." However, "scrag" is not a commonly used word. Let's try another word segment.
Next, we can try "spre" with the second part of the number, which is 4. Combining "spre" with 4, we get "spreen." "Spreen" is a word that means "to remove unwanted parts," but it might not be the expected answer.
Finally, let's try "stri" with 9. Dividing 9 into two parts (5 and 4), we can combine "stri" with 5, forming "strife." "Strife" is a word that means "conflict" or "struggle," and it fits the pattern of the analogy. Therefore, the answer to the analogy is:
fifteen : five :: nine : strife.
Please note that analogies sometimes have multiple correct answers, but given the given constraints, "strife" is the most fitting word in this case.
