Answer: It will take 19.5 one-gallon containers
Explanation: We know that 1 liter is 0.26 gallons
All we need to do is to make a ratio
1 75
---- -----
0.26 ?
We need to do what we did on the top (times 75 to get 75) on the bottom (times 75 to get 19.5)
Hope this helps!
X+(x+18)=$56
56-18=38
38/2=19
She spent $19 on accessories
19+18= $37 on clothes
$37+$19=$56
Decimal=9.03 &
fraction= 9 3/100
The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.
