Answer: there are 59059 lbs of gravel.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a mixture of​ concrete, there are four lbs of cement mix for each pound of gravel. This means that eight lbs of cement would be mixed for 2 pounds of gravel and 12 lbs of cement would be mixed for 3 pounds of gravel and 12. Therefore, the constant ratio of cement to gravel is 4:1

The total ratio is 4 + 1 = 5

If the mixture contains a total of 295295 lb of these two​ ingredients, then the number of pounds of gravel that are​ there is

1/5 × 295295 = 59059 lbs

n200080 [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 320

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

1/4 of the calories in a chocolate - 10 = calories in an apple

Equation

    Calories in a chocolate bar = 4(calories in apple + ten)

                                                                    = 4(70 + 10)

                                                                    = 4(80)

                                                                   = 320

Is 3/2 greater than 1? Or Less than
Simora [160]

Answer:

3/2 is greater than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A little trick to immediately know if a number is more or less than when it involves fractions versus whole numbers is that improper fractions will always be greater than 1.

If you want to confirm this, dividing 3/2 equals 1.5, ergo 1.5 > 1.

In essence, improper fractions will always represent a number greater than one contrasted to proper fractions because if you put it on a perspective (let's say you have 13 pie slices but you only needed 12, that means there is a pie slice that's extra that makes it greater than the original pie slices).

Hope that helps :)
