Question
20 multiple answer 5 points select all the true statements. (smiley faces: 6, triangles: 2, squares: 4) the ratio of triangles to squares is 2 to 4. the ratio of squares to smiley faces is 6:4. the ratio of smiley faces to triangles is 6 to 4. there are two squares for every triangle. there are two triangles for every smiley face. there are three smiley faces for every triangle (options: a, d, e, b, f)
First, let's count the number of each shape:
- Smiley faces: 6
- Triangles: 2
- Squares: 4
Step 1: Analyze each statement
- The ratio of triangles to squares is 2 to 4: Triangles = 2, Squares = 4. So ratio 2:4. This is true.
- The ratio of squares to smiley faces is 6:4: Squares = 4, Smiley faces = 6. So ratio should be 4:6, not 6:4. False.
- The ratio of smiley faces to triangles is 6 to 4: Smiley faces = 6, Triangles = 2. Wait, no, 6:2? Wait, no, wait: Triangles are 2, Smiley faces 6. So smiley faces to triangles is 6:2? Wait, no, the statement says 6 to 4? Wait, no, wait, maybe I miscalculated. Wait, triangles are 2, squares 4, smiley 6. So smiley faces (6) to triangles (2) is 6:2, but the statement says 6:4? Wait, no, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, no, the third statement: "The ratio of smiley faces to triangles is 6 to 4". Wait, triangles are 2, so 6:2 simplifies to 3:1, but 6:4 simplifies to 3:2. Wait, no, maybe I miscounted. Wait, the triangles are 2, so smiley faces (6) to triangles (2) is 6:2, which is 3:1. But the statement says 6:4. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, no, let's recheck:
Wait, the first statement: triangles (2) to squares (4) is 2:4, which is correct.
Fourth statement: "There are two squares for every triangle". Triangles = 2, Squares = 4. So per triangle (2 triangles), squares are 4, so per 1 triangle, squares are 4/2 = 2. So yes, two squares per triangle. Correct.
Fifth statement: "There are two triangles for every smiley face". Smiley faces = 6, Triangles = 2. So per smiley face, triangles are 2/6 = 1/3. So no, false.
Sixth statement: "There are three smiley faces for every triangle". Triangles = 2, Smiley faces = 6. So per triangle, smiley faces are 6/2 = 3. So yes, three smiley faces per triangle. Correct.
Wait, let's re-examine the third statement: "The ratio of smiley faces to triangles is 6 to 4". Smiley faces = 6, Triangles = 2. 6:2 is 3:1, but 6:4 is 3:2. So that's false. Wait, maybe I miscounted triangles. Wait, the image shows two triangles. So triangles = 2, smiley = 6, squares = 4.
So let's re-express each statement:
- Triangles (2) to squares (4): 2:4 ✔️
- Squares (4) to smiley (6): 4:6, not 6:4 ❌
- Smiley (6) to triangles (2): 6:2, not 6:4 ❌
- Squares per triangle: 4 squares / 2 triangles = 2 squares per triangle ✔️
- Triangles per smiley: 2 triangles / 6 smiley = 1/3 per smiley ❌
- Smiley per triangle: 6 smiley / 2 triangles = 3 smiley per triangle ✔️
Wait, but the third statement: "The ratio of smiley faces to triangles is 6 to 4". Wait, maybe the statement has a typo, or I miscounted. Wait, no, triangles are 2, so 6:2 is 3:1, but 6:4 is 3:2. So that's false.
Wait, but maybe I made a mistake. Let's check again:
- Smiley faces: 6 (correct, as per the image: 6 smileys)
- Triangles: 2 (correct, two triangles)
- Squares: 4 (correct, four squares)
So:
- Triangles (2) to squares (4): 2:4 ✔️
- Two squares per triangle: 4 squares / 2 triangles = 2 per triangle ✔️
- Three smiley per triangle: 6 / 2 = 3 ✔️
Wait, but the third statement: "The ratio of smiley faces to triangles is 6 to 4". Smiley (6) to triangles (2) is 6:2, which is 3:1, but 6:4 is 3:2. So that's false.
Wait, maybe the third statement is a mistake, but let's check the options. The options are A, D, E, B, F, but the original statements are:
First statement: let's call it Statement 1.
Fourth: Statement 4.
Sixth: Statement 6.
Wait, the options given are A, D, E, B, F, but the statements are:
- The ratio of triangles to squares is 2 to 4. (True)
- There are two squares for every triangle. (…
