Answer:

3500 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

The Greenpoint factory produced 2/5 of the bricks that the Consolidate Brick Company produced in 1991.

Let the amount of bricks produced by the Greenpoint factory be g and the amount of bricks produced by the Consolidated brick company be c.

Therefore:

g = 2/5 * c = 2c/5

That year, the Greenpoint factory produced 1400 tons of bricks. This implies that:

1400 = 2c/5

To find the amount that the Consolidated Brick Company produced, solve for c:

1400 = 2c/5

1400 * 5 = 2c

7000 = 2c

c = 7000 / 2 = 3500 tons

The Consolidated Brick Company had a total production output of 3500 tons in 1991.

Turn .055 into fraction
Slav-nsk [51]
Write 0.055 as
0.055
1

Multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point.

0.055
1

The factors of 55 are: 1 5 11 55
The factors of 1000 are: 1 2 4 5 8 10 20 25 40 50 100 125 200 250 500 1000
The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for both 55 and 1000 is: 5
Now to reduce the fraction we divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF value.

=
0.055 x 1000
1 x 1000
=
55
1000


In order to reduce the fraction find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 55 and 1000. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.

Answer ( 55/1000
= 11/200)
