In triangle NLM, point S is the centroid, QS = (3x – 5) cm, and NS = (4x) cm. Triangle N L M has centroid S. Lines are drawn from each point to the midpoint of the opposite side to form line segments N Q, L R, and M P. The length of line segment N S is 4 x and the length of line segment S Q is 3 x minus 5.

What is NS?

White shapes and black shapes are used in a game. some of the shapes are circles. while the rest are squares. the ratio of the number of white shapes to the number of black shapes is 5: 11. the ratio of the number of white cicrles to the number of white squares is 3: 7. the ratio of the number of black circles to the number of black squres is 3: 8. work out what fraction of all the shapes are circles.
