8/10 because 0.8 is in the tenths place, and then simplified it would be 4/5
Answer:
<u>Question 1:</u>
5 pints per hour
<u>Question 2:</u>
480 tons per day
<u>Question 3:</u>
12 miles per gallon of gasoline
<u />
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Question 1:</u>
<h2><em>In the morning;</em></h2>
A farm worker packed 3 pints of grapes every 4 minutes.
1 minute =
hours
Packing rate in pints per hour = 3 pints ÷
hours = 45 pints per hour
<h2><em>In the afternoon;</em></h2>
She packed 2 pints of grapes every 3 minutes.
Packing rate in pints per hour = 2 pints ÷
hours = 40 pints per hour.
The difference between her morning and afternoon packing rates (in pints per hour) = 45 pints per hour - 40 pints per hour = 5 pints per hour
<u>Question 2:</u>
A recycling plant processes an average of
tons of glass each minute.
1 hour = 60 minutes
The number of tons of glass processed in 1 hour is:
× 60 = 20 tons of glass in 1 hour.
1 day = 24 hours
Number of tons of glass processed in a day = 20 tons × 24 = 480 tons
<u>Question 3:</u>
A vehicle uses 1
gallons of gasoline to travel 13
miles.
Per 1 gallon of gasoline the vehicle will travel:
1 × 13
÷ 1
= 12 miles
Answer:
Explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
(3+4)= 7
7+2 = 9
-(3-4) (Invisible one)
-3+4 add to the 9
10
10+2= 12
12-4=8
8×4 =32
Sorry if this seems a bit confusing, but its quite hard to show the process without paper.
Hope this helps! :)
<h3>Stan drinks 12 ounces of water in 1 hour</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Stan drinks 3/4 of a 8 ounce glass of water in 1/2 of an hour
Which means,


Therefore,
6 ounces is drank in 0.5 hour
We have to find the water he drinks in an hour
Let "x" be the water he drinks in 1 hour
Thus we get,
6 ounce = 0.5 hour
x ounces = 1 hour
This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying

Thus, he drinks 12 ounces of water in 1 hour
