Answer:

16.5 hours will it take her to drink 4 gallons of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion states that two ratios or fractions are equal.

As per the statement:

Hye Lim drank 4/3 gallons of water in 11/2 hours.

We have to find how long will it take her to drink 4 gallons of water

let x be time in hours will it take her to drink 4 gallons of water

then by definition of proportion,

\frac{\frac{4}{3}}{\frac{11}{2}} = \frac{4}{x}

By cross multiply we have;

\frac{4}{3}x = \frac{11}{2} \cdot 4

Simplify:

\frac{4}{3}x =22

Divide both side by \frac{3}{4} we have;

x = \frac{66}{4} = \frac{33}{2} =16.5 hours

Therefore, 16.5 hours will it take her to drink 4 gallons of water

xenn [34]

Answer:

7×6×5×4×3×2×1+5 can be written as  5*[7*6*5*4*3*2*+1] or 5*(1009). So, other than the number and 1, it has 5 and 1009 as its factors too. So it is  a composite number.

Step-by-step explanation:

A composite number is a positive integer that has a factor other than 1 and itself.
