Theluner calender would be inaccurate because it doesnt shouw the full 29 and a half days as the moon turns through its phases

alexira [117]3 years ago
3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider that one cycle of the moon phases would be considered as one month. This would mean that in 29 months one month would be over. The 1/2 would not be considered as one day. So, at the end of 12 months the 1/2 days would add up and you would end up with 12×1/2 = 6 extra days.

In the gregorian calender the revoultion around the sun is considered as the year which takes 365.25 days. The months are arranged according to 31 or 30 days. However at the end of 4 years we get one whole day. Hence, the leap has 366 days.

Nonsense Conversion Problems. How many elephants are equal to 10 gorillas? Conversion Factors: 1 elephant= 13 farmers, 23 gorill
notsponge [240]

100/299 elephants is equal to 10 gorillas

Given that 23 gorillas = 4 horses, hence:

1 gorilla = (4/23) horses

The amount of horses that is equal to 10 gorillas is:

10 gorillas = (4/23) horses × 10 = (40/23) horses

Also, 5 farmers = 2 horses, hence:

1 horse = (5/2) farmer

The amount of farmers that is equal to (40/23) horses is:

(40/23) horses = (5/2) farmer × (40/23) = 100/23 farmers

Also, 1 elephant= 13 farmers. Hence:

1 farmer = (1/13) elephant

The amount of elephant that is equal to (100/23) farmers is:

(100/23) farmers = (1/13) elephant × (100/23) = 100/299 elephants

Hence 100/299 elephants is equal to 10 gorillas
