Answer:
8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
BF * EF = CF * DF
7 * 17 = CF * 14
119 = CF * 14
CF = 119 / 14
CF = 8.5
Multiply both sides by 4/3
x= 60 * 4/3
x= 80
Answer: 5.22kg
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, a farmer sells 8.7 kilograms of pears and apples at the market. Of the pears and apples sold, 2/5 of this weight is pears, and the rest is apples. To calculate the kilograms of apple sold goes thus:
Total kilograms sold = 8.7kg
Fraction of pears weight = 2/5

= 0.4 × 8.7
= 3.48kg
Since the kilograms of pears sold is , 3.48kg, to get the kilograms of apple sold, we subtract 3.48kg from 8.7kg. This will be:
= 8.7kg - 3.48kg
= 5.22kg
