Answer:
Second barn: 912 bricks
Third barn: 1826 bricks
Fourth barn: 1402 bricks
Step-by-step explanation:
(English question: The barn consists of 1259 bricks. The second barn has 347 bricks less. The third has 567 bricks more than the first barn and the fourth barn has 490 bricks more than the second barn. How many bricks consists of the second, third and fourth barn.)
If the second barn has 347 bricks less than the first barn, so the second barn has:
1259 - 347 = 912 bricks
The third barn has 567 bricks more than the first barn, so the third barn has:
1259 + 567 = 1826 bricks
The fourth barn has 490 bricks more than the second barn, so the fourth barn has:
912 + 490 = 1402 bricks
Answer:
87.4%
Step-by-step explanation:
The radius to the top of the atmosphere as a fraction of the moon's radius is ...
(2575 +600)/2575 ≈ 1.23301
The ratio of the moon's volume with atmosphere to the moon's volume without is the cube of this, or 1.87456
Then the ratio of the atmosphere's volume to the moon's volume is ...
(1.87456 -1)/1 = 0.87456
Atmospheric haze is about 87.4% of the moon's volume.
_____
We have assumed that the desired ratio is to the solid moon's volume, not the volume of moon and atmosphere together. The latter ratio would be 0.875 to 1.875 or about 46.7%.
