There are 24 pens in a desk drawer. The pens are either red or blue. The ratio of red pens to blue pens is 5:1. How many pens ar

Flura [38]

Answer:

The number of red pens is 20.

The number of blue pens is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that, the ratio of number of red pens to the number of blue pens is 5 : 1.

∴ Let us assume that the number of red pens be 5<em>x</em> and number of blue pens be <em>x</em>.

Total number of pens in the desk drawer = 24

Now, according to question :

Number of red pens + Number of blue pens = 24

⇒5<em>x</em> + <em>x</em> = 24

⇒6<em>x</em> = 24

⇒ $x=\frac{24}{6}=4$

So, number of red pens in the drawer = 5<em>x</em> = 5 × 4 = 20

Number of blue pens in the drawer = <em>x</em> = 4

A cereal mixture contains Almond, Wheat, and Corn in the ratio of 3:5:7. What amount of this mixture contains 9 kilograms of Alm

Mice21 [21]

The total cereal mixture is 45 kilograms

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, cereal mixture contains Almond, Wheat, and Corn in the ratio of 3:5:7

Therefore,

Almond : Wheat : Corn = 3 : 5 : 7

Let the almond present be 3x

Let the wheat present be 5x

Let the corn present be 7x

Therefore,

Total cereal mixture = 3x + 5x + 7x

Total cereal mixture = 15x

<em><u>Given that mixture contains 9 kg of almond</u></em>

Almond = 9

We know that,

Almond present = 3x

3x = 9

x = 3

Therefore,

Total cereal mixture = 15x = 15(3) = 45

Thus total cereal mixture is 45 kilograms

Sarah needs to have a plumber come to her house and fix a leaky faucet in her bathroom. The plumber charges $50 to come to her h

klio [65]

Answer:

Sarah can have the plumber work on her faucet for six (6) hours maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi

As Sarah has only $234.50 in her savings and the plumber charges $50 just to come to her home, so left-over $184.50 of her saving for pay work hours.

Then as the plumber charges $30.75 per hour we have that $\frac{\$ 184.50}{\$ 30.75/h}=6h$ is the maximum amount of hours that Sarah can have the plumber work on her faucet.

One-third of a storeâs inventory is childrenâs clothing. Two-fifths of its inventory is womenâs clothing. What fraction of the t

Eva8 [605]

Answer: C. 11/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The fraction of stores inventory is children's clothing= $\dfrac{1}{3}$

The fraction of stores inventory is women's clothing= $\dfrac{2}{5}$

Since both events are independent.

Therefore, the fraction of the total inventory is children's or women's clothing = (Fraction of stores inventory is children's clothing ) + (Fraction of stores inventory is women's clothing )

$=\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{2}{5}=\dfrac{5+2(3)}{15}$

$=\dfrac{11}{15}$

∴ The fraction of the total inventory is children's or women's clothing $=\dfrac{11}{15}$

Hence, the correct answer is C. 11/15 .
