If Ann can build the model in 3 hours, then in 1 hour she gets 1/3 of it done. Likewise, if Sam can build the model in 6 hours, then in 1 hour he gets 1/6 of it done. We are looking to find how long it takes when they combine their efforts, so we will add the two together and set it equal to 1/x, x being the number of hours it takes for both of them to get the whole job done. The equation then looks like this:
. You will have to find the common denominator to add those fractions, and once you do, cross multiply to solve for x.
9 ft
Set up a ratio...6/18=x/27...reduce to 1/3=x/27...cross multiply and solve for x.
3x=27 so x=9
X=7 because 7-3 = 4, 7+8= 15,15x4=60.
Answer:
Please read the explanation to clarify.
Step-by-step explanation:
What you would have to do is multiply 1.06 by 4 to get 4.24. However, if you search up the exact conversion on g00gle, "how many liters are in 4 quarts?", you get the exact number of 3.78541, which can be rounded to 3.78. I believe if this is more of an exam thing, you should go with the first answer I gave, 4.24, and show how you multiplied to show your work. However, if you would like to use the second answer, it is completely up to you. Either way, I hope this helped, and if you have any further questions please don't hesitate to let me know. :)
