Answer:

24.30 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one person consume x kgs in a day

No. of Men = 1500

Total available provision for 48 days = 48 x 1500x

Thus the provision consumed in 13 days = 13 x 1500x

Remaining Provision = Total Provision – consumed provision

= 72000x – 19500x

=52500x

Now 660 men were added , Hence total strength will be 1500+660 = 2160

Provision consumed in one day = 2160x

Provision left = 52500x

Hence number of days for which provision can run

= \frac{52500x}{2160x}

=24.30 days

Hence the provison will end for 24.30 more days

Scale on a map of Ireland is 1.2 000000 how many square centimetres are represented on the map by the province of Munster.
zavuch27 [327]

Question is incomplete, we will however explain how the scale works using examples

Answer and explanation:

Given the map scale 1:2000000, the fraction from this 1/2000000 is the representative fraction. The representative fraction is the ratio of distance on the map to the real distance on ground.

With the representative fraction 1/2000000, we can find how many meters on the ground is represented by a unit of measurement in centimeters on the map thus:

Given 1m= 100cm

Representative fraction broken down = 1/2×10000×100

Therefore 1cm on the map = 20000m on ground

The garden outside Ms.Mertz's class needs 5 liters of water a week. Jacob poured 326 millimeters of water on the garden on Monda
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Enough water has been poured .

Step-by-step explanation:

The garden needed water in a week = 5 liters

Jacob poured water on Monday = 326 ml = ( 326/ 1000) liters = 0.326 liters.

SEAN poured water on Tuesday = 1.5 liters

Gavin poured water on Wednesday = 2312 ml = ( 2312/ 1000) = 2.312 liters.

Stephen poured water on Thursday = 894 ml = ( 894/ 1000)  = 0.894 liters

The total amount of water poured by all these people = 0.326 + 1.5 +2.312 +0. 894 = 5.032 liters

Here we can see that water has been poured is more than the water required  in a week.
