Answer:
2 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
8 pint = 1 gallon
First, get the sum of the ratio. (11 + 2 = 13)
Divide 52 by 13 to find one 'part' of the ratio. (52 ÷ 13 = 4)
Now that we have one 'part' of the ratio, we multiply it by 11 and 2 to get: (£4 × 11 = £44) and (£4 × 2 = £8).
The ratio will be £44:8.
We can check if this is correct by adding 44 and 8 to see if it adds up to 52. (44 + 8 = 52). It does, so it's correct.
Use pemdas for these types of questions. -3x2= 6 7+6 = 13 x=13
You can set it up like:
400/2.5 = 600/x; now cross multiply
400x = 2.5(600)
400x = 1,500; now divide both sides by 400 to isolate the x, and you get x = 3.75 hours
