Ratio of minutes to draw and manage to wash is 4 to 3 how many minutes will a load need to walk if it takes 56 minutes to dry
draw and manage?
load need to walk?
This doesn't make any sense to me.
To find out the number of minutes needed for a load to wash, we need to determine the ratio between washing and drying time.
Given that the ratio of minutes to draw (drying time) to manage (washing time) is 4 to 3, we can set up a proportion to solve for the washing time:
(drying time) / (washing time) = (minutes to dry) / (minutes to wash)
Substituting the given values into the proportion:
4 / 3 = 56 / (minutes to wash)
To solve for minutes to wash, we can cross-multiply:
4 * (minutes to wash) = 3 * 56
Simplifying the equation:
4 * (minutes to wash) = 168
Dividing both sides by 4:
minutes to wash = 168 / 4 = 42
Therefore, it will take 42 minutes for a load to wash if it takes 56 minutes to dry.
