To begin to solve this problem, we want to find out what ingredients we need to make a single pancake. To do that, we need to use the information already given (what it takes to make 6 pancakes), and divide it by 6.


That means that it takes:

Eggs: 2 ÷ 6 = 1/3

Milk (cups): 1.5 ÷ 6 = 1/4

Pancake Mix (cups): 1/3 ÷ 6 = 1/18

To make 1 pancake.

Now let's look at what it takes to make the number of pancakes with the ingredients we have, 5 eggs, 4 cups of milk (doing the conversion) and 1.5 cups of pancake mix. To find out how many pancakes we can make, we need to know how many times of each ingredient of the unit recipe is in this recipe.

We get:

Eggs: 5 ÷ (1/3) = 15

Milk: 4 ÷ (1/4) = 16

Mix: 1.5 ÷ (1/18) = 27

Looking at these, we take the smallest of these numbers (because we can't have any partial pancakes). That means that we can make 15 pancakes with what's provided to us.

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

a) 91% of the scores were at or below her score.

b) 9% of the scores were above her score.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a value V is said to be in the xth percentile of a set, x% of the values in the set are lower than V and (100-x)% of the values in the set are higher than V.

In this problem, we have that:

Angela scored on the 91st percentile.

(a) What percentage of the scores were at or below her score?

Since Angela scored on the 91st percentile, 91% of the scores were at or below her score.

(b) What percentage were above?

Since Angela scored on the 91st percentile, 9% of the scores were above her score.

in 2 h, kelly laid new floor tile over 1/5 of the room. when she was joined by annette, the rest of the work was completed in 3h
jeyben [28]

Answer: Annette will take 6 hours to do the entire job alone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Time taken by Kelly to do \dfrac{1}{5} of job = 2 hours

i.e. Time for complete job done alone by Kelly =5\times2=10\ hours

Rest of work = 1-\dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{4}{5} of the job

\dfrac{4}{5}  of the complete job done by both Kelly and Annette in 3 hours

Time would be taken by then to do entire job together = 3\times\dfrac{5}{4}=3.75\ hours

Let t be the time taken by Annette to do job alone.

Then, as per situation

\dfrac{1}{3.75}=\dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{1}{t}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{3.75}-\dfrac{1}{10}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{4}{15}-\dfrac{1}{10}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow\ t=6

hence, Annette will take 6 hours to do the entire job alone.
