step 1
convert miles to km
1 mile is-----> 1.60934 km
18.5 miles/hour-----> 18.5*1.60934=29.77 km/hour

step 2
convert km/hour to km/minutes
29.77 km/hour--------> 29.77/60----> 0.4962 km/minutes

step 3
by proportion
0.4962 km/1 minutes=125 km/x minutes
0.4962 km----------> 1 minute
125 km-------------> x

x=125/0.4962----> x=251.91 minutes---------> x=251.9 minutes

the answer is
251.9 minutes

Alternative Method

step 1
convert km to miles
1 km is-----> 0.621371 miles
125 km-----> 125*0.621371--->77.67 miles

step 2
convert miles/hour to miles/minutes
18.5 km/hour--------> 18.5/60----> 0.3083 miles/minutes

step 3
by proportion
0.3083 miles/1 minutes=77.67 miles/x minutes
0.3083 miles----------> 1 minute
77.67 miles-------------> x

x=77.67/0.3083----> x=251.9 minutes

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

680

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of red to white 4 : 7

Number of white = 280

White + red buttons = x

7x / 11 = 280

7x = 280 * 11

7x = 3080

x = 3080 / 7

x = 440

Number of red buttons 440 - 280 = 160

Number of red bottons ;

Blue + red buttons = x

3 : 2 ; blue : red

3 + 2 = 5 ;

2x / 5 = 160

2x = 160 * 5

2x = 800

x = 800 / 2

x = 400

Number of Blue buttons :

400 - 160 = 240

Total :

White + red + blue

280 + 160 + 240 = 680 buttons
