Question #8c5eb

Answer 1

Elm:Pine
Min-9.6:6.4
Max-18:12

Explanation:

To find the actual ratio of a value `n`, given a simplified ratio `a:b` we use the formula `n(aorb)/(a+b)`.

Let's take the minimum value of 16. To find the number of elm trees we do `(16*3)/5=9.6`, for pine we do `(16*2)/5=6.4`, `9.6:6.4`.

Now let's take the minimum value of 30. To find the number of elm trees we do `(30*3)/5=18`, for pine we do `(30*2)/5=12`, `18:12`.
