A wheelchair ramp has a slope of 1 10 . if its rise is 1 5 2 feet, what is its run?

1 answer:

7 0

$slope = \frac{rise}{run} \\ 110 = \frac{152}{run} \\ run \times 110 = 152 \\ run = \frac{152}{110} \\ run = \frac{76}{55} \: \: \: \: or \: \: \: 1.38$

Not sure if this is very clear
Patty = 45.8%
Bun = 20.8%
Cheese = 8.3%
Sauce = 12.5%
Pickles = 4.2%
Veggies = 8.3%

EXPLANATION :

The equation to find a percentage is part(the broken down calories) over whole ( the total calories) is equal to % which we replace with x (since we’re trying to find the %) over 100 because all percents are out of 100. So for simple terms, p/w = %/100.
What I did was put 550/1200 = x/100, cross multiply, leaving you with 1200x=55000, then divide 55000/1200, giving you 45.8.
