11 bottles are needed to fill a 16 liter jug

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, there is a 16 liter jug

There are 1\frac{1}{2} liters of bottle

<em><u>Let us first convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction</u></em>

Multiply the whole number part by the fraction's denominator.

Add that to the numerator.

Then write the result on top of the denominator.

\rightarrow 1\frac{1}{2} = \frac{2 \times 1 + 1}{2} = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5

Thus the bottle is of 1.5 liter

We have to find the number of 1.5 liter bottles needed to fill 16 liter jug

Divide 16 by 1.5 to get result

Number\ Of\ Bottles = \frac{16}{1.5} = 10.67 \approx11

Thus 11 bottles are needed to fill a 16 liter jug

Approximately 40% of the calls to an airline reservation phone line result in a reservation being made. (round to three decimal
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The probability that none of the 10 calls result in a reservation is 0.60%.  In turn, the probability that at least one call results in a reservation being made is 99.40%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since approximately 40% of the calls to an airline reservation phone line result in a reservation being made, supposing an operator handles 10 calls, to determine what is the probability that none of the 10 calls result in a reservation, and what is the probability that at least one call results in a reservation being made, the following calculations must be performed:

0.6 ^ 10 = X

0.006 = X

0.006 x 100 = 0.60%

Therefore, the probability that none of the 10 calls result in a reservation is 0.60%.

100 - 0.60 = 99.40

In turn, the probability that at least one call results in a reservation being made is 99.40%.

One canned juice drink is 25​% orange​ juice; another is 10​% orange juice. How many liters of each should be mixed together in
Talja [164]
11 liters of 25% orange juice, 4 liters of 10% orange juice:

1' let x to be 25% orange juice and y be 10% orange juice

2' .25x+.10y=(15).21

3' x+y=15

4' 2.5x+y=31.5 divide all sides by 10

5' -x-y=-15 multiply all sides by -1

6' 1.5x=16.5

7' x=11

8' y=15-11=4

so 11 and 4 are the answers.
