In a camp, 95 kg food is sufficient for 5 persons. Find the quantity of food required for 23 persons.

1 answer:

3 0

95/5= 19 (the rate; each person needs 19 kg of food)

So,

You need to multiply that by 23 to get the amount you need for 23 people.

19*23= 437 kg

437 kg is sufficient for 23 people.

I hope this helps!

Answer: The width is 12 feet shorter than the length.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle can be calculated with this formula:

$A=lw$

Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width of the rectangle.

We know that lenght of Jennie's yard is 30 feet, the width is $(30-x)ft$ and the area is 540 square feet. Then:

$l=30\\w=(30-x)\\A=540$

Substitute these values into the formula and then solve for "x":

$A=lw\\\\540=30(30-x)\\\\540=900-30x\\\\30x=900-540\\\\x=\frac{360}{30}\\\\x=12$

Therefore, the width is 12 feet shorter than the length.

Two halfs equal one whole. think of it like this, an orange cut in half leaves you with two halfs, put them together and you have a whole. simple. multiplying by 2 just means adding a number two times.
1 half plus one half= 2halves= 1 whole
1half x 2= 2 halves=1 whole
