3,000 yd3 = 200 dtl
Chapter 1: Problem Solving 17 / 21
Rates Question
12 A highway had a landslide, where 3,000 cubic yards of material fell on the road, requiring 200 dump truck loads to clear. On another highway, a slide left 40,000 cubic yards on the road. How many dump truck loads would be needed to clear this slide?
3,000 yd3 = 200 dtl
40,000 yd3 × 200 dtl = 2,667 dtl
3, 000 yd3
<span>With a boys to girls ratio of 8:7, this means 8/15 of the campers are boys and 7/15 of the campers are girls.
We are told that there are 195 total campers.
To find # of boys: 195 (the total # of campers) x 8/15 (fraction of the campers that are boys) = 104 boys
To find # of girls: 195 (total # of campers) x 7/15 (fraction of the campers that are girls) = 91 girls
Note: If you do not know how to multiply by fractions, let me know, I have another trick that takes more time but doesn't require the use of fractions.

(0,16)
because the number on the x axis is 0 and the number on the y axis is 16
have a nice day and good luck with the rest of your homework!
So there are 41 two pointers and three pointers.
there are 21 two pointers and 20 three pointers
