Answer:
Flour
12/4 * 1 3/4 = 9/4 cups = 2 1/4 cups
Sugar
12/4 * 1 = 3 cups
Milk
12/4 * 1/3 = 1 cup
Answer: it will take 2.5 hours for both people to meet after person B leaves.
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between the house of person A and his cousin's house is 234 miles.
At the point where they meet, they would have travelled 234 miles.
Person A travelled at an average speed of 44 miles per hour.
Let t represent the time spent by Person A in travelling from his house to the point where they meet.
Distance = speed × time
Distance covered by person A would be
44 × t = 44t
One and half hours later, person B leaves his house to visit person A, travelling at an average speed of 62 miles per hour. This means that total time spent by person B in travelling to the point where they meet is (t - 0.5) hours. Distance covered would be
62(t - 0.5) = 62t - 31
Since the total distance covered is 234 miles, then
44t + 62t - 31 = 234
106t = 234 + 31 = 265
t = 265/106 = 2.5 hours
The value of a would be 3.5, as a=1 when b=10 means that a is worth 1/10 of b's value.
