Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use following steps to measure exactly 4 gallons of water with the help of 5 gallons and 3 gallons empty jugs.

1). Fill 3 gallons jug completely.

2). Pour this 3 gallons of water into 5 gallons jug. Now we have 3 gallons of water in 5 gallons jug and 3 gallons jug empty.

We can add 2 gallons of water in the empty space of 5 gallons jug more.

3). Fill the 3 gallons jug with the water again.

4). Pour this water into 5 gallons jug which can hold 2 gallons of water more.

Now we have 5 gallons of jug filled fully and 1 gallon water remaining in the 3 gallons jug.

5). Empty the 5 gallons jug completely.

6). Pour the remaining 1 gallon of remaining water in 3 gallons jug into 5 gallons jug.

7). Fill the 3 gallons jug completely and pour it into 5 gallon jug.

8). Finally we have 4 gallons of water in the 5 gallons jug.

Answer:

x=12

10x = 120

5x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

paralellograms will become 360 degrees

so 2(5x) +2(10x)= 360

Simplify:

10x + 20x = 360

= 30x

divide both sides by 30 and isolate

<u>30x </u> = <u>360</u>

30        30

x=12

multiply 12 by 10x and 5x

10x = 120

5x = 60

On average, Shawnte drinks of a 6-ounce glass of water in
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

3/4 of a 6-ounce glass will be drunk by her in one hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given time = 2/3 of hour

                  = 2/3 (60)       As hour = 60 mins

                  = 120/3

                   = 40 mins

Given quantity of water = 1/2 of 6-ounce

                                      = 3 ounce

So,

  In 40 mins, water intake is 3 ounce

  In 1 min, water intake is 3/40

  In 60 mins, water in take is (3/40)*60 = 4.5 ounce

Quantity of water intake in 60 mins:

       4.5 ounce or 3/4 of 6-ounce glass

I hope it will help you.
