Answer:

To make a pair of pom-poms, we will need 56 white strands, 40 blue strands and 64 red strands

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in knowing the number of strands of each color needed to make a pair of pom-poms.

Since we are making a pair of pompoms and each pom-pom has 80 strands, the total number of strands for a pair will be 2 * 80 = 160 strands

Now, we want to use 35% white strands

So the number of white strands will be;

35/100 * 160 = 56 white strands

25% blue strands will be ;

25/100 * 160 = 40 blue strands

40% red strands will be;

40/100 * 160 = 64 red strands

Answer:

There are two pom-poms in a pair.

If it takes 28 white strands to make one pom-pom, then it takes 28 × 2 = 56 white strands to make a pair of pom-poms.

If it takes 20 blue strands to make one pom-pom, then it takes 20 × 2 = 40 blue strands to make a pair of pom-poms.

If it takes 32 red strands to make one pom-pom, then it takes 32 × 2 = 64 red strands to make a pair of pom-poms.

A factory makes 1200 shirts every 6 hours.the factory makes shirts for 9 hours a workday. what is the fewest number of workdays
Dominik [7]
1. Divide the target number of shirts, 12,600 by the company's rate of making the shirts. That is,
                                 number of hours = 12,600 shirts/ (1200 shirts/6 hours)
                                                               = 63 hours
2. Determine the number of workdays for them to complete the shirts by dividing 63 hours by 9 hours/workday. This will give us an answer of 7 workdays.
