First of all, you need to compare the two statements. That will be;
1/4= 1 batch
3=Y
Y is the unknown number of batches. So we need to find Y. Next, cross and multiply. 3 will multiply 1 to give 3 and Y will multiply 1/4 to give 1/4Y. That will be;
1/4Y=3
1/4 Y is the same as Y/4. So you have;
Y/4=3
3 is the same as 3/1
Y/4=3/1
Cross and multiply. Y will multiply 1 to give Y and 3 will multiply 4 to give 12. That will be;
Y=12

Answer:
people have told the speaker their secrets
Explanation:
Robert Oppenheimer was made the in-charge of the bomb designer project. He was instructed by Leslie Groves, the head of the project, that the ongoing projects are to be kept under secrecy from the other scientists. Oppenheimer opposed the idea of keeping secrecy from other scientists. In his speech he focused on the presence of belief and trust that the scientists should endure in themselves. It was agreed that there would be a close and secret relationship among the scientists related to the scientific researches and findings.
The original sentence used the pronoun in a wrong way - the way that sentence is written, it would seem that the table needed washing, and not the dishes. The revised sentence fixes this mistake by placing the pronoun nearer the antecedent.
An antecedent is a word or a phrase which is located in front of the pronoun (ante means before) and which that pronoun refers to. The pronoun here is 'that,' and its antecedent is 'the dishes.' So by moving the pronoun 'that' nearer the antecedent 'the dishes' we fixed the ambiguous sentence.
