Answer:

Sum of all positive integers less than 400 and divisible by 5 is 15,800.

Step-by-step explanation:

TO FIND :

The sum of all positive integers less than 400 which are divisible by 5.

The set of positive integers I^+  =  1,2,3, 4,5,6,7,.........,,

Now, the number should be divisible by 5.

SO, the desired set of positive integers =  { 5,10,15,20,.......}

Again the numbers are LESS than 400.

So, the desired set of positive integers =  { 5,10,15,20,....... 385,390, 395}

Here, First term a  = 5, common difference d  = 4 and last term an = 395

a_n = a+ (n-1) d\\\implies 395 = 5 + (n-1) 5\\\implies 78 = n - 1 \implies n =  79

⇒There are total 79 terms in the series.

So, SUM OF 79 TERMS  =

S_n = \frac{n}{2} (a + a_n) \\\implis S_{79} = \frac{79}{2} (5 + 395)  = 15,800\\\implies S_{79} = 15,800

Hence, The sum of all positive integers less than 400 which are divisible by 5 is 15,800.

A drinking straw is 1 cm in diameter and 15 cm long.<br><br> What is the volume of the straw?
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer: 11.775

If you plug in the radius (0.5 because the radius is half of the diameter) and the height to the formula for volume of a cylinder you will get pi•0.5 squared•15 which when solved is 11.775.

The Westside Bakery uses 310 pounds of flour to make 1,000 loaves of bread. Each loaf
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

310 / 1000 = 0.31 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing by a number that is 1 less 0 than how many digits the number has, we can move the decimal point the number of times zero is repeated at the end of the number.

1000 has 3 zeroes, so we move the decimal point 3 moves to the left.

So, we do this:

After 0 moves: 310

After 1 move: 31.0

After 2 moves: 3.10

After 3 moves = 0.310

0.310 is the same as 0.31

Therefore, 0.31 pounds of flour are in each loaf.
