Question

A 380-Cubic-Centimeter sample of titanium has a mass of 1710 grams. Find the weight of a titanium sample that has a volume of 532 cubic centimeters. Find the proportion.

Answer 1

Proportion says that two ratios (or fractions) are equal.

If $380\ cm^3$ has a mass of 1710 grams and $532\ cm^3$ has unknown mass of x grams, then you can write it as

$380\ cm^3$  - 1710 grams,

$532\ cm^3$ - x grams.

Mathematically this means:

$\dfrac{380}{532}=\dfrac{1710}{x}.$

Find x:

$x=\dfrac{532\cdot 1710}{380}=2394$ grams.

Answer: 2394 grams.

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 2,394

Step-by-step explanation:

If you take 1,710 and then divide by 380 you get the origin number 4.5

then take 4.5 and multiply by 532 you get the answer 2,394

(math problem)

1,710 ÷ 380 = 4.5

4.5 x 532 = 2,394 (grams)
