Answer:

37

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by reducing the ratio to its smallest value. This is the same as 1:14

We know from the question that the number of apple eater takes the 14 ratio part. We can make the calculations for the total number first then make a subtraction to get the number of apple eaters.

Firstly, we add the ratios together:

1 + 14 = 15

Let the total number of reindeers be T

14/15 * T = 517

T = (15 * 517)/14 = 554

To get the the number of apple loving Reindeers, we then subtract.

This is 554 - 517 = 37

Mr. Kohl has a breaker containing n milliliters of solution to distribute to the students in his chemistry class. If he gives ea
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

There were 26 students in his class and the teacher had 83 ml of the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Kohl has a "x" amount of solution, if he divides it by the number of students "n" he'll give each student 3 milliliters  and have a left over of 5 milliliters. If the amount of solution Mr. Kohl had was "x + 21" then he'd be able to give each student 4 milliliters of the solution. From these informations we have:

x = 3*n + 5

(x + 21)/n = 4

x + 21 = 4*n

x = 4*n - 21

Now that we have two equations and two variables we can solve the system of equations, as seen bellow:

3*n + 5 = 4*n - 21

3*n - 4*n = -21 - 5

-n = -26

n = 26

x = 4*26 - 21 = 83 ml

There were 26 students in his class and the teacher had 83 ml of the solution.
