<h2>Answer:</h2>

The number of  bags of manure which will fill the box completely is:

                                  One

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We know that the volume of rectangular box with length(l), width(w) and height(h) is given by:

Volume=lwh

Here we have:

l=7 feet

w=9 inches=0.75 feet

( since, 12 inch=1 feet

Hence, 1 inch=1/12 feet )

and

h=6 inches=0.5 feet

Hence, the volume of the rectangular box is:

Volume= 7×0.75×0.5

i.e.

Volume=2.625 cubic feet.

Now, the number of bags of manure that will fill the box completely is:

Ratio of volume of box to Volume of 1 bag of  manure

= 2.625/2.625

=1

Hence, only one bag of manure could be fit into the box.

Mashutka [201]

Answer: Rs 25,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Retailer sold an electric iron to a customer at a loss of 10%

Suppose the Cost price of iron is x

So, selling price is 0.9x

This price must be equal to 25425+ VAT

\Rightarrow 0.9x=25425-0.13(0.9x)\\\Rightarrow 0.9x+0.117x=25425\\\Rightarrow 1.017x=25425\\\Rightarrow x=\text{Rs }25,000

Thus, the cost price is Rs.25,000

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are represented by 3m, 3m and 3m.
Aleks04 [339]
Q1: The perimeter of the triangle is a + b + c and if each side is the same then it's 3a. In this situation we may write it in its simplest form as 9m. Note that 3(3m) is also correct but it's not the simplest form.

Q2: You're correct, the distributive property of 3(3m) can be written as 3 (2m + m).
