Answer:
1/49
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
0.40
Step-by-step explanation:
Change the divisor 1.8 to a whole number by moving the decimal point 1 places to the right. Then move the decimal point in the dividend the same, 1 places to the right.
We then have the equations:
7.2 ÷ 18 = 0.40
and therefore:
0.72 ÷ 1.8 = 0.40
Both calculated to 2 decimal places.
18 girls
Half of the students volunteer
15 don't -- so the other half must be 15 as well making there 30 students in the class.
If 12 are boys, then 30(students in class) - 12 (boys) = 18 girls
Set up the equation of two ratios:
3 racks 36 racks
----------- = --------------
15 min x
Solve this for x: 3x =540; x = 180 minutes, or 3 hours
5.3 minutes.
First, let's calculate the volume of the tank. That will be the area of the base multiplied by it's length. And since it's base is a circle, the area is pi*r^2. So:
V = l*pi*r^2
V = 3.5 * pi * (2.2/2)^2
V = 3.5 * pi * (1.1)^2
V = 3.5 * pi * 1.21
V = 4.235 * pi
V = 13.30464489
So the tank has a volume of about 13.3 ft^3. Now simply divide that volume
by the rate of incoming fluid. So
13.3 / 2.5 = 5.32
Rounding to 2 significant figures gives a time of 5.3 minutes.
