(1 / 4) = .25
.25 * 100% = 25%
Uncle Bill ate 25%
Cousin Chris ate 15%
.3 * 100% = 30%
Cousin Timmy ate 30%
Little Dave ate 12%
You ate none.

Cousin Timmy ate the most, 18% of the turkey is left, and 82% of the turkey was eaten.

Find all the numbers for each shape

Answer:

  • 1 = pentagon
  • 2 = diamond
  • 3 = square
  • 5 = circle
  • 6 = rectangle
  • 7 = oval
  • 8 = triangle
  • 9 = hexagon
  • 10 = trapezoid

Step-by-step explanation:

Each half of a hanger divides the total weight in half. The right-most vertical has a total weight of 80/16 = 5. It consists of a square and a diamond, and we know the square is 1 more than the diamond. That means 2 diamonds weigh 5 -1 = 4. A diamond weighs 2, and a square weighs 3. The other half of that balance is a circle, which weighs 5.

The total of a square and oval is 10, so the oval is 10 -3 = 7. The two trapezoids weigh 20, so each is 10.

The second vertical from the left is a circle and diamond which will weigh 5+2 = 7. That makes the sum of a pentagon and rectangle also be 7. The 7+7 = 14 below the square on the left branch makes the total of that branch be 14+3 = 17, which is also the sum of the triangle and hexagon.

The weight below the rectangle at top left is 17+17 = 34, and the weight of that entire branch is 40. Thus the rectangle is 40-34 = 6, which makes the pentagon 7-6 = 1.

We require the sum of the triangle and hexagon be 17, with the triangle being the smaller value, and both being 9 or less (the trapezoid is the only figure weighing more than 9). Hence the triangle is 8 and the hexagon is 9.

The weights are summarized in the answer section, above.

If you know the rate of a water leak in gallons per hour, how can you find the number of hours it takes for 1 gallon to leak out
Evgen [1.6K]

1/the rate of leakage per hour

This will give you the time it takes for 1 gallon to leak out in hours.  

For example, if something is leaking at the rate of 12 gallons per hour, it will take 1/12 of an hour for 1 gallon to leak out. ( or 5 min)
