Step-by-step explanation:

7

---

10

5

10

Invert the denominator and multiply

7            10

X    

10           5

I'm sorry, I don't exactly see how the diagram helps you. It seems to me it is much easier done just by doing what I did, which works every time.

step-by-step explanation:

answer: the answer is 100 x 12,500, which is 1,250,000.

step-by-step explanation: emily solved for a part when she should have solved for the whole.  

875,000 should be the numerator of the equivalent ratio.  

70 x 12,500 is 875,000.
