Answer:

Both tanks

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a unit conversion problem. We need to know how many gallons are there in 40 pints and with this information we will know in which tank he will need to fill in the bottles. In order to solve it we need the equivalence between this two measurement units. Which is:

1gallon=8pints

This equivalence can be used as a conversion factor like this:

\frac{1gallon}{8pints}

Applying it to the problem we can convert from pints to gallons:40pints*\frac{1gallon}{8pints}=5gallons

He will need both tanks because neither of them has enough gallons to fill 40 one pint bottles.

One gallon is equal to 8 pints only filling 8 bottles per gallon so if you do 8×2 you can only fill 16 bottles so thats not enough and when you do 8×3=24 its still not enough to fill all 40 bottles so he would need both tanks to fill all 40 bottles 8×5=40

N P r = (n!)/((n-r)!)
8 P 4 = (8!)/((8-4)!)
8 P 4 = (8!)/(4!)
8 P 4 = (8*7*6*5*4!)/(4!)
8 P 4 = 8*7*6*5
8 P 4 = 1680

The final answer is 1680

Colby made $66.50 for mowing 7 lawns. Let x represent the number of lawns mowed and y represent the amount of money earned. Writ
Amanda [17]

Answer:

x = 9.5y

Step-by-step explanation:

7 lawns = $66.50

1 lawn = $66.50 ÷ 7

          = $9.50

You now know that for one lawn mowed, the amount of money earned is $9.50. Thus:

1x = 9.5y

x = 9.5y

If there's 15 players total 1/3 are wearing red shoes 2/5 or wearing blue shoes and everyone else is wearing black shoes what is
Volgvan

Answer:

\frac{4}{15} is the fraction of people wearing with black shoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

If there's 15 players total, 1/3 are wearing red shoes, 2/5 are wearing blue shoes and everyone else is wearing black shoes.

Now, to find the fraction of people with black shoes.

Total players = 15.

Fraction of people wearing red shoes = \frac{1}{3}.

So, number of people are wearing red shoes:

\frac{1}{3} \times 15\\\\=5.

Fraction of people wearing blue shoes = \frac{2}{5} .

Thus, number of people wearing blue shoes:

\frac{2}{5} \times 15\\\\=6.

And rest are wearing black shoes.

Now, to get the number of people wearing black shoes by subtracting number of people are wearing red shoes and blue shoes from the total number of players:

15-5-6\\\\=15-11\\\\=4.

Thus, the fraction of people wearing black shoes:

\frac{Number\ of\ people\ wearing\ black\ shoes}{Total\ number\ of\ players}

= \frac{4}{15} .

Therefore, \frac{4}{15} is the fraction of people wearing with black shoes.
