Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

there is 1 water station at every 0.3 KM

If there are n water stations at every 0.3 KM

then KM covered by them = n*0.3 = 0.3n

given that total KM covered is 15 km

Thus,

0.3n = 15

=> n = 15/0.3 = 50

Thus, there are 50 water stations.

What is 2 times 2/6?

Aloiza [94]

Hi there!

I can see why you've posted a question like this here - For adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing fractions by whole numbers can be difficult to come out with a precise answer, so let me make it look easier for you!

So, the steps are:

Smush the 2 (whole number) and the 2 (the numerator of the fraction) together on top so its (2)(2) over 6. I can show you what I mean, if you'd like.

$\frac{(2)(2)}{6}$ This is what it should look like.

Now, what is 2 times 2? You can use a calculator for this part.

$2 *2 = 4$

Now, we can get to the last part, my favorite one!

Simplify $\frac{4}{6}$ down to $\frac{2}{3}$ .

How did we do it? EASY!

See what number does evenly into both numerators and denominators. In this case, 2 goes into 4 twice, and 2 goes into 6 three times, so we're left with our beautiful answer $\frac{2}{3}$ .

That wasn't so bad, was it? You can use this as a guide for figuring out math problems like these, in case you're stuck again. But just in case, message me if you need anymore help! :D

As part of a new advertising campaign, a beverage company wants to increase the dimensions of their cans by a multiple of 1.10.

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

New can holds $112.25\,\,cm^3$ more than the old can

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Diameter of the can is 6 cm and height is 12 cm such that volume of can is $339.12\,\,cm^3$

Dimensions of the can are increased by a multiple of 1.10

To find: Difference between the volume of new can and volume of old can

Solution:

Volume of can (v) = $339.12\,\,cm^3$

Let r, h denote radius and height of the can.

Let R, H denotes radius and height of the new can.

r = diameter/2 = $\frac{6}{2}=3\,\,cm$

h = 12 cm

R = $3(1.1)=3.3.\,\,cm$

H = $12(1.1)=13.2\,\,cm$

New volume (V) = $\pi (R)^2H=\pi(3.3)^2(13.2)=451.37\,\,cm^3$

So,

$V-v=451.37-339.12=112.25\,\,cm^3$

Help me with math question please, will give 20 points

Kisachek [45]

in step 2 he made his first mistake

1/2(n-4)-3=3-(2n+3)

1/2n-4/2-3=3-(2n+3)

1/2n-2-3=3-(2n+3)

in the second step he put 5 instead of 2.

58 is 20% of<br>having trouble

ella [17]

First, let's introduce a variable:

Let n represent the number we are trying to find.

20 % x n = 58
0.20 x n = 58
0.20n = 58
n = 290

Therefore, 58 is 20% of 290.

Hope this helps!
