The question says the machine uses up m gallons of oil each hour on weekends.
This means that if the machine works for 24 hours each day, it implies that:
There are only two days on weekends i.e. Saturday and Sunday.
This means that if the amount of oil used in 1 day in the weekend is 24m, then we can say:
Saturday: oil used is 24m
Sunday: oil used is 24m
Total oil used during the weekend is:
If you mean when 2 numbers are left. then you would, add the numbers together and then divide them by 2
hope i helped
Hi will read 1,400 pages each day if he reads the book
a = amount (in oz) of solution A
b = amount of solution B
The scientist wants a mixture of 110 oz, so
a + b = 110
Solution A consists of 65% salt, so each ounce of solution A contributes 0.65 oz of salt; similarly, each ounce of B contributes 0.9 oz. The mixture is supposed to consist of 75% salt, which amounts to 0.75 * (110 oz) = 82.5 oz of salt. So
0.65 a + 0.9 b = 82.5
Solve for a and b:
b = 110 - a
0.65 a + 0.9 (110 - a) = 82.5
0.65 a + 99 - 0.9 a = 82.5
0.25 a = 16.5
a = 66 ==> b = 44
