The answer is 4) 140.
If we closely examine the pattern of the series, we see that after a number is subtracted by a value, it is multiplied by the same value, and then it moves on to the next natural number.
- 10 - 2 = 8
- 8 × 2 = 16
- 16 - 3 = 13
- 13 × 3 = 39
- 39 - 4 = 35
The next step, according to the pattern, would be to multiply 4.
A gardener has 10 pounds of soil. Now he 5/8 of that soil for his garden. Let's solve how many pounds of soil did he used and how many pounds is left.
=> 5/8
=> 10 lbs / 8 = 1.25 lbs
=> 1.25 lbs * 5 = 6.25 lbs.
He used 6.25 lbs of soil for his garden and has 3.75 lbs of soil left.
Answer:
600 L of 30% proof and 400 L of 80% proof is needed
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of 30% smell proof be x while that of 80% smell proof is y
Then;
x + y = 1000 •••••(i)
Also;
30% of x + 80% of y = 50% of 1000
0.3x + 0.8y = 500 •••••(ii)
From i, x = 1000 - y
Put this into ii
0.3(1000-y) + 0.8y = 500
300 - 0.3y + 0.8y = 500
0.5y = 500-300
0.5y = 200
y = 200/0.5
y = 400 L
But x = 1000 - y
x = 1000 - 400 = 600 L
It would be zero because you can’t raise 0 to any positive power.
First you find the area of the front face 1/2bh or in you case 10x12=120 1/2 of 120 is 60 next you multiply 60 by 20 to get 1,200 for the voulume
