The number
should be inserted into each rectangle.
To find the value that should be inserted into each rectangle, we can divide the total number of tickets into the given ratio of tickets sold to unsold tickets.
The ratio states that for every 5 tickets sold, there are 3 tickets unsold.
Let's calculate the value for each ticket sold:
Tickets sold = (5 / (5 + 3)) x 1200
= (5 / 8) x 1200
= 750
Therefore, the number 750 should be inserted into each rectangle.
To find the number of tickets sold and unsold, we need to divide the total number of tickets into the ratio of 5:3.
Step 1: Add the numbers in the ratio (5 + 3 = 8).
Step 2: Divide the total number of tickets (1,200) by the sum of the ratio (8).
1,200 รท 8 = 150
So, each rectangle should have the value 150.
The ratio of tickets sold to unsold tickets is 5:3.
To find the value that should be inserted into each rectangle, we can divide the total number of tickets (1,200) into 8 parts (5 + 3).
Each part would represent a value of 1,200/8 = <<1200/8=150>>150.
Therefore, the number 150 should be inserted into each rectangle.
