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

You are walking 3.5 miles per hour. At this pace, how long will it take to walk the 6 miles to school?
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = s = 3.5 miles / hour

d = 6 miles

t = ?

============

t = d / s

t = 6 / 3.5

t = 1.714 hours

t = 1 5/7 hours

You could figure this out in minutes for 5/7 but it will not make the time any clearer. You will still wind up with a fraction.
