What you need to do is find the greatest amount (1) and the lowest amount (1/4) of sap collected and the find how many times the lowest can go into the greatest. (So how many times can 1/4 go into 1). I believe that this is how you would do that.
Answer:
It can be filled 15 times
Step-by-step explanation:
If 5 casks hold 120 gallons each,
5x120= 600
To find how many times a 40gallon barrel can be filled,
= 600/40
= 15
This means a 40 gallon barrel will be filled 15 times.
We'll take 1.25 miles as one minute (x) and take 100 as total distance (D) while T is the time it took to reach that distance.
T = D/x
putting the values in
T = 100/1.25
T = 80
80 minutes is the answer.
Answer:
3/7 and 4/17
Step-by-step explanation:
a) given that Shen is playing a game and the probability of unlocking the treasure test is 3/10.
To find the odds in favour of his character unlocking the treasure chest.
Since probability = 3/10 we have favourable and total are in the ratio 3:10
i.e. favourable:Favourable+unfavourable= 3:3+7
Hene odds= favourable:unfavourable =3/7
Answer is 3/7
b) Given that odds against choosing a blue block are 13/4
This means there are 4 blue blocks and 13 other colour blocks.
Total blocks= 13+4 =17
No of blue blocks = 4
Probability of selecting blue block=4/17
