Answer:

243.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term (a) = 324.

The common ratio (r) = -108/324 = -1/3.

So sum of 9 terms is:

S(9) = 324 * (1 - (-1/3)^9) / ( 1 - (-1/3)

= 324 ( 1 - (-0.00005076)) / 4/3

= 324 * 1.00005076 / 1.33333

= 243.012.

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

302

Step-by-step explanation:

420(grams per sec)x60(seconds in a min) = 25,200(grams per min)

25,200x60(min in an hour) = 1,512,000(grams an hour)

1,512,000/1,000(grams in a kilogram) = 1,512 (kilograms per hour)

1,512/20 (size of bag) = 75.6 (bags filled per hour)

75.6x4(hours elapsed asked by the question) = 302 bags completly filled in 4 hours

Sliva [168]

Basically we want to know how many times 5/8 goes into 5 1/4.

5 1/4 ÷ 5/8 = 21/4 ÷ 5/8 = 21/4 × 8/5 = 42/5 = 8.4 bags

Since we cannot have a fraction of a bag, he can fill 8 bags completely.

answer: 8 bags
