Answer:

7 times during the first 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

1\ min=60\ sec

so

15\ min=15(60)=900\ sec

Decompose the numbers 18 and 42 in prime factors

we know that

18=(2)(3^2)

42=(2)(3)(7)

Find the least common multiple (LCM)

The LCM is

(2)(3^2)(7)=126\ sec

we need to find all multiples of 126 that are less than or equal 900.

126*1=126\ sec\\126*2=252\ sec\\126*3=378\ sec\\126*4=504\ sec\\126*5=630\ sec\\126*6=756\ sec\\126*7=882\ sec

therefore

7 times during the first 15 minutes

The Royal Fruit Company produces two types of fruit drinks. The first type is 60% pure fruit juice, and the second type is 85% p
andrew11 [14]

Answer: There are 32 pints of first type and 128 pints of second type in mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Percentage of pure fruit juice in first type = 60%

Percentage of pure fruit juice in second type = 85%

Percentage of pure fruit juice in mixture = 80%

We will use "Mixture and Allegation" to find the ratio of first and second type in mixture:

          First type          Second type

               60%                    85%

                              80%

------------------------------------------------------------------------

     85-80               :              80-60

       5%                  :                 20%

        1                     :                   4

so, the ratio of first and second type is 1:4.

Total number of pints of mixture = 160

Number of pints of mixture of  first type in mixture  is given by

\dfrac{1}{5}\times 160\\\\=32\ pints

Number of pints of mixture of second type in mixture is given by

\dfrac{4}{5}\times 160\\\\=4\times 32\\\\=128\ pints

Hence, there are 32 pints of first type and 128 pints of second type in mixture.
