The leg rule is hypotenuse/leg and the altitude rule is side 1/altitude=altitude/side 2

Mrs. Jones bought 6 kilograms of rice. After filling 10 containers with the same

9966 [12]

There are 514 gram rice in each container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount of rice = 6 kg

1 kg = 1000 g

6 kg = 6*1000 = 6000 g

Number of containers = 10

Rice left = 860 g

Let,

x be the amount in each container.

Total amount of rice - Number of containers*Amount in each container = Amount of rice left

$6000-10x=860\\6000-860=10x\\5140=10x\\10x=5140$

Dividing both sides by 10

$\frac{10x}{10}=\frac{5140}{10}\\x=514$

There are 514 gram rice in each container.

Gelneren [198K]

A=2(LW+LH+WH)

A=2((7/8)(1/3)+(7/8)(2/5)+(1/3)(2/5))

A=2(7/24+14/40+2/15)

A=14/24+28/40+4/15

A=7/14+7/10+4/15 210

A=(105+147+56)/210

A=308/210

A=(210+98)/210

A=1 98/210

A=1 7/15
