This problem can be solved using proprtions.  Once you set up the proportion, the calculations are easy.

Let x = number of pens made in 1 second.

\frac{9pen}{3sec} = \frac{xpen}{1 second}

Now, you just cross multiply and solve.

9 = 3x

x = 3

The rate is 3 pens per second.

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

$1,800

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total revenue last year = $2,800

If they spent 1/4 of their revenues on marketing;

Amount spent on marketing = 1/4 * 2800

Amount spent on marketing = $700

Remaining money = 2800 - 700

Remaining money = $2100

If 1/7 of the remaining money is spent on upgrading their facilities, then;

Amount spent on upgrading facilities = 1/7 * 2100

Amount spent on upgrading facilities = $300

Total amount spent on marketing and facilities  = $700 + $300

Total amount spent on marketing and facilities  = $1000

Amount left = $2,800 - $1,000

Amount left = $1,800

Find two consecutive integers whose sum is 77​
Semenov [28]

Answer:

<h3>                 38, 39 </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between two consecutive integers is 1

So if

x  - the smaller number

then

x+1   - the larger number

x + x+1 = 77

  -1          -1

2x = 76

÷2    ÷2

 x = 38

x+1 = 38+1 = 39
