the answer to this question is 4
Over 4 years, there will be a loss of 60,000 acres per year, so 60,000 times 4 is equal to 240,000 acres. 240,000 is positive because the problem asks for the change, not the increase.
This is the work you will show
c=-60,000(4)
c=-240,000
So -240,000 represents the change.
You could also just count by -60,000 four times.
-60,000-60,000-60,000-60,000=-240,000.
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of cars to trucks to motorcycles is $4:3:2.
If there are $42$ cars and trucks total,
To get how many motorcycles are there
Sum up the ratio of cars and trucks 4:3= 4+3 = 7
Sum up the ratio of cars and trucks and motorcycles
4+3+2 =9
Let the total number of cars and trucks and motorcycles be represented as A
The total number of cars and trucks in the question is 42
(7/9) x A = 42
7A/9 = 42
cross multiply
7A = 42×9 = 378
A= 378/7 = 54
The total number of cars and trucks and motorcycles is 54
To get the number of motorcycles can be calculated through
a. The total number of cars and trucks and motorcycles subtracted by the number of cars and trucks = 54-42=12 or use the ratio which is
2/9 × 54 = 2×6=12
Answer:
50 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
We have the ratio as
7:10
The total part = 7+10= 17
let the number of boys and girls be x
applying the part to all method
7/17= 35/x
cross multiply
7x= 35*17
7x=595
x=595/7
x= 85
Hence the number of girls is
=85-35
=50 girls
