Kayra and Mycho sell flowers on weekends to earn extra money.For every 2 flowers that Kayra sells,Mycho sells 5. If Kayra sold 6

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

We know that:

For every two flowers that Kayra sells, Mycho sells 5.

Now, in the question we have:

"If Kayra sold 6 newspapers, how many did Mycho sell?"

There is no information about newspapers, so we can't answer anything.

If we had something like:

"If Kayra sold 6 flowers, how many did Mycho sell?"

Well, in this case, we remember that for every 2 flowers that Kayra sells, Mycho sells 5, then the first thing we need to do is count how many groups of 2 flowers we have in 6 flowers, this is:

6/2 = 3 groups.

And for each one of these, Mycho will sell 5 flowers, then the total number of flowers that Mycho sold is:

3*5 = 15 flowers.

A grapefruit has a peel that is 1cm thick and a total diameter of 12cm. What percentage of volume of the grapefruit is the peel?

ira [324]

Answer:

0.3056 or 30.56%

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the grapefruit with the peel is:

$V_p=\frac{4 \pi (d/2)^2}{3}\\V_p=\frac{4 \pi (12/2)^2}{3}\\V_p=48 \pi$

When removing the peel, the grapefruit diameter becomes 10 cm (take out 1 cm of peel from each side). The volume of the grapefruit without the peel is:

$V_n=\frac{4 \pi (d/2)^2}{3}\\V_n=\frac{4 \pi (10/2)^2}{3}\\V_n=33.333 \pi$
