For an investment compounded continuously, the rule of 69 gives a better approximation than the rule of 72 (for normal compound interests).
Answer:
55 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Jim ran 15 miles in 5 days
no. of miles ran in 5 days = 15 miles
dividing LHS and RHS by 5
no. of miles ran in 5/5(=1) days = 15/5 miles = 3 miles
no. of miles ran in 1 day = 3 miles
let the no. of days taken to run 165 miles be x ----A
No of miles ran in x days = x*no. of miles ran in 1 day = 3x miles
thus, From A
3x = 165
x = 165/3 = 55
Thus, it took 55 days for JIM to run 165 miles
6 because there would be the same number of tulips in each vase and same name of vases. 6 x 6 is 36
