Each train carried 64141 kg of flour and each truck carried 9163 kg of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of kg of flour carried by each train be 'a'

Let the no. of kg of flour carried by each truck be 'b'

Total flour = 403172 kg

No. Of trains = 5

No. of trucks = 9

a = 7(b)

5a + 9b = 403172

5(7b) + 9b = 403172

35b + 9b = 403172

44b = 403172

b = 403172/44

b = 9163

Each truck carried 9163 kg of flour.

a = 7b

a = 7(9163)

a = 64141

Each train carried 64141 kg of flour.

Which equation or inequality correctly compares 15006.099 and 15006.101? A.15006.099<15006.101 B.15006.099>15006.101 C.150
wariber [46]

Hey!

-------------------------------------------------

\boxed{ \bf A.~15,006.099~

-------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

Since both numbers have 15,006 before the decimal we only need to see which number has a bigger decimal.

0.099 < 0.101

0.101 - 0.099 = 0.002

So, 15,006.101 is 0.002 bigger than 15,006.099!

The value of the first 7 from the left is 70.

If you divide 70 by 10, you get the value of the second seven, 7.

Another way to know this is equivalent fractions:

1/10 = 7/10

10 X 7 = 70
1 X 7 = 7
