Mathematics

The answer is that 80 people will build the same road in 160 days.

Given that 50 people take 256 days to build a road.

And we need to find out how many days will 80 people take to build the same road.

Disclaimer: Assuming that the work done by all the people are same.

If the number of people increases, the time taken to build the road decreases in the same proportion. Clearly, the number of people varies inversely to the number of days.

Let x denote the number of days required to build the road for 80 people.

Then the ratio, 80/50 = 256/x

⇒ x = (256×50)/80 = 160

Therefore, 80 people will build the same road in 160 days.

A 165 inch pipe is cut into two pieces. One piece is four times the length of the other.Find the length of the shorter piece. Ho
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Length of longer length=132 inches

Length of shorter length=33 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine total length of pipe

Total length of pipe=165 inches

Step 2: Derive expression for all the lengths

We can express all these lengths as follows;

L=l1+l2

where;

L=total length

l1=length of longer piece

l2=length of shorter piece

but;

length of longer piece=4×length of shorter piece

replacing;

l1=4l2

replacing;

L=165

l1=4×l2

165=l 2+4 l2

5 l2=165

l2=165/5

l2=33 inches

l1=length of longer length=33×4=132 inches

l2=length of shorter length=33 inches

Write and solve a problem involving money that can be solved with a multiplication equation. tell what the variable represents
olganol [36]
Ben wanted to take some money from his Friends to build his family a home. He said that he would give the money back after 12 months. So he would give 1500$ a month. How much money did he borrow?
1500*12=x

Matilda got also money, she told Ben, I got x $ from my dad and y $ from mom. all they gave me was 5000$. If I gave mom Half of the moneys I got from her than I would have 3000$ left to pay. How much did she borrow from her parents?
x+y=5000
and
x+y/2=3000

so x=5000-y
and
5000-y+y/2=3000

so
x=5000-y
and
y=4000

so x=1000 and y=4000
