So if 1/2 = 18 miles, we want to first find how many sets of 1/2 are in 21/2. We can just do this by dividing.
(21/2) / (1/2) = 21
So we know that there are 21 sets of 1/2 in 21/2, and since 1/2 and 18 are equal, we can say we know there are 21 sets of 18.
We can multiply to find this.
21 * 18 = 378
So two towns are 378 miles apart.
(7x) + 3 = 8
subtract both sides by 3.
7x = 5
divide both sides by 7 to isolate the variable, x.
x = 5/7
In a bag of snack mix:
n = nuts d = dried fruit
n = 744g d = ???g
Ratio Nuts/Dried fruit = 12/13
This basically means that if the mix was divided in 25 parts, 12 parts would be nuts and 13 would be dried fruits
If 744 is 12 parts then 744/12 is 1 part
744/12 = 62
1 part = 62g
there are 13 parts of dried fruit
13 x 62 = 806
744g of nuts + 806g of dreid fruit = 1550g
Answer: A batch of snack mix weigh 1550g, or 1.55kg
hope it helps :)
I think the formula for the volume of a cone is V=(1/3) x hπr².
r²= 9
1/3= 0.3
= 0.3 x 4 x 3.14 x 9
= 33.912
