Answer:

3/400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent earth's water

let f represent fresh water and let g represent ground water

f = \frac{1}{40}w

g =\frac{3}{10}f = \frac{3}{10}(\frac{1}{40}w)\\ \\g = \frac{3}{400}w

Therefore, fraction of earth's water,w, that is ground water = 3/400

Answer: Ground water is 3/400 of earth's water

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent earth's water,

F represent earth's fresh water, and

G represent earth's ground water.

The statement can then be expressed as follows:

About 1/40 of the earth's water is fresh water:

(1/40)x = F

About 3/10 of the earths fresh water is ground water:

Say: (3/10)F = G

=> (3/10)(1/40)x = G

(3/400)x = G

Therefore, ground water is 3/400 of the earth's water.

On a sheet of paper, you have 100 statements written down.
serg [7]

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first statement its true (At most 0 of the statements are true), there are not true statements in the paper. So, the first statement its false.

Now, if the first statement its false, this mean there must be at least 1  true statement in the paper.

Now, if the second statement its true ( at most 1 of the statements are true) this implies that the third statement its true (if "at most 1" its true, then "as most 2" must be true).

If any statement (besides the first) its true, then all the statement that follows it must be true.

The first non false statement, then, must be the statement made by the person 51:  "At most 50 statements are true"

And the 49 statements that follows are true as well.
