Answer:
9 hours, 20 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
When two ferries work together, they transport a day's cargo in 7 hours
The speed proportion or ratio of larger ferry to smaller ferry is given as 3 : 1
The sum of the ratio = 4 (3 + 1)
This means that it will take the smaller ferry = 7 x 4 hours to work alone = 28 hours, since the larger ferry is faster by 3.
Therefore, when larger ferry works alone, it will take it (7 x 4)/3 = 9.33 hours.
9.33 hours = 9 hours, 20 minutes.
The sum of 15 and r.
Sum is the term used in verbal addition problems.
This is an expression therefore, you do not state what it equals. We no this because there is no equals sign.
yes the answer is ratio you are correct
