The first thing you must do is to calculate the weight of the gravel (w) that the truck holds (7.5 yards³). So, you have:
If the weight of 1 yard³ is 1.48 tons, then the weight of 7.5 yards³ is:
w=7.5x1.48 tons
w=11.1 tons
The problem says that the gravel will be placed in containers that each hold 3.7 tons of gravel,so, If they need 1 cotainer to place 3.7 tons, how many containers they need to place 11.1 tons?
1 container-------3.7 tons of gravel
x-------11.1 tons of gravel
x=(11.1x1)/3.7
x=11.1/3.7
x=3 containers
H<span>ow many containers of this size are needed to hold all the gravel from one truck?

The answer is: 3 containers.
Answer:
12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
first you do the one in the 40-15 then you add 50 the you divide by 6
You just find the quartiles which are 62 and 50 the mines them which equals 12.
Answer:
8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide by a decimal, you are breaking apart 1 into multiple pieces and so you are trying to find how many of that size piece will fit into 5. For example if you divide by .5 (point five), there are 2 point fives in 1 so there are 10 point fives in 5. The quotient is larger.
I hope you got that...
