The prime cost of an article was four times the value of material used. The cost of raw materials was increased in the ratio 3 :
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime cost = 4 times the value of material used

Former Prime cost = 540

Value of material = 540 / 4 = Rs. 135

Since ;

Prime cost = raw material + wages

540 = 135 + wages

Wages = 540 - 135

Wages = 405

Increase in raw material ; 3 : 4

New cost of raw materials = (4/3) * 135 = 180

Decrease in wage ; 4 : 5

New wage = 4/5 * 405 = 324

New prime cost :

180 + 324

= 504

You back packed for a distance of 15.75 miles today. You back packed at an average speed of 1.26 miles per hour, how long did yo
Anna [14]

Let us first concentrate and write down all the information's given in the question. Based on these information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Distance for which back packing was done = 15.75 miles
Average speed of back packing = 1.26 miles/hour
Since
Speed = Distance/Time
Time = Distance/speed
Time spend for back packing = 15.75/1.26 hour
                                               = 12.5 hour
So the total time taken for back packing is 12.5 hours. I hope this is the answer you were looking for and the procedure is clear to you.
