The answer is 246:157.

Step by Step:

Group A:

First, figure out 1/5 of the people in group A. ( 615/5 = 123 )

Find 2/5 ( the amount of people who lost ) ( 123*2 = 246 )

Group B:

They received the same amount of fuel cards, so you take 526 - 369 ( 3/5 of the last group, or the winners, which is the amount of cards they received ) = 157.

Find the missing measure for a right circular cone given the following information.
xxTIMURxx [149]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The radius of the cone is:

          r=\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{\pi}}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The total area of cone is given by:

T.A.=\pi r(l+r)=\pi rl+\pi r^2=12---------(1)

where r is the radius of the cone and l is the slant height of the cone.

and the lateral area of cone is given by:

L.A.=\pi rl=8---------(2)

Hence, from equation (1) and (2) we have:

 8+\pi r^2=12\\\\\\i.e.\\\\\\\pi r^2=4

i.e.

r^2=\dfrac{4}{\pi}

i.e.

r=\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{\pi}}

An electrician has 4.1 meters of wire how many strips 7/10 m can he cut . How much wire will he have left
kogti [31]
7/10 m= 0.7 m

4.1÷0.7=5.85 

You would round down 5.85 to just 5, because he cannot cut less than a whole strip.

To find the exact amount of wire used in 5 strips:

5×0.7= 3.5

4.1-3.5= 0.6 m will be leftover.
