The distance between city C and city D is 450 miles.
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, The distance between City A and City B is 250 miles.
A length of 2.3 feet represents this distance on a certain wall map.
City C and City D are 4.14 feet apart on this map.
We have to find what is the actual distance between City C and City D?
Now, distance between a and b is 250 miles ⇒ 2.3 feet on map
Then, distance between c and d be n miles ⇒ 4.14 feet on map.
Now, by chris cross method.
250 x 4.14 = 2.3 x n miles.
2.3n = 1035
n = 450
Hence, the distance between city C and city D is 450 miles.
Answer:
the number that you divide by is called the dividend and the number which the dividend is being divided by is the divisor.
Let us take a number x
The four consecutive numbers will be
x+1, x+2, x+3
Thus our equation will be
x + x+1 + x+2 + x+3 = 42
4x + 6 = 42
4x = 36
x= 36/4
x= 9
Thus the four numbers are (substitute)
x=9
x+1=9+1=10
x+2=9+2=11
x+3=9+3=12
9,10,11,12
