Answer:

a-b=10

Step-by-step explanation:

add all the numbers then round

13+ 14+ 22+ 52+ 63+ 77=241

Round to the nearest ten

a =240

first rounding each number to the nearest ten and then add

13+ 14+ 22+ 52+ 63+ 77

10+10+20+50+60+80 =230

b= 230

a-b = 240-230

      = 10

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's calculate a. The sum of the numbers is 13+14+22+52+63+74=238. 238 rounded to the nearest ten gives us a=240.

Now let's calculate b. Rounding 13, 14, 22, 52, 63, 74 each to the nearest ten, we get 10, 10, 20, 50, 60, 70 respectively. This means that b=10+10+20+50+60+70=220. Therefore, a-b=20

The amount of chlorine in a swimming pool is proportional to the volume of water. The pool has 2.5 milligrams of chlorine per li
stira [4]

Answer:

There are <u>20,000 milligrams</u> chlorine in the pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The chlorine per liter of water in the pool is 2.5 milligrams.

The  volume of water in the swimming pool is 8000 gallons.

Now, to find the quantity of chlorine in the pool.

Let the quantity of chlorine be x.

The gallons of water in the swimming pool = 8000.

The milligrams of chlorine per liter of water in the pool = 2.5.

According to question, the amount of chlorine in the swimming pool is proportional to the volume of water.

So, 2.5 mg of chlorine is equivalent to 1 liter.

Thus, x is equivalent to 8000.

Now, to get the quantity of chlorine by using cross multiplication method:

\frac{2.5}{1} =\frac{x}{8000}

<em>By cross multiplying we get:</em>

20000=x\\\\x=20,000\ mg.

Therefore, there are 20,000 milligram chlorine in the pool.
