Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of tools for both = 564.
Dr Brown used 386 tools for 6 experiments.
average number of tools per experiment used by Dr Brown =
= 64
Dr Rachal used 236 tools for 8 experiments.
average number of tools per experiment used by Dr Rachal =
= 29
i. The number of more experiment that can be done by Dr Brown = (564 - 386) ÷ (64)
= 2.7668
Dr Brown can do two more experiments.
The number of more experiments that can be done by Dr Rachal = (564 - 236) ÷ (29)
= 11.1186
Dr Rachal can do 11 more experiments.
ii. Number of tools left after Dr Brown's experiments = 564 - 386
= 178
Number of tools left after Dr Rachal's experiments = 564 - 236
= 328
