Answer:

8182 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

A correct proportion to use is 22 over 5,000 = 36 over d

Cross multiply to get 22d = 5,000 x 36. Then, solve d. d = 8181.81.......so the approximate distance rounded to the nearest whole number from London to Beijing is 8182 kilometers.

Hope This Is Right.....

Answer: 8182

Step-by-step explanation: a good proportion to use is 22 over 5000= 36 over the mystery number.( in this case, we will use D). then we cross multiply 22xd=5000x36. then we solve for D which is about 8181.81. therefore the rounded answer is 8182.

hope this was helpful!

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer: 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the shopkeeper purchased 60 pencil boxes for 4,500, he purchased them at the rate of:

= 4500 / 60

= 85 per pencil box

If the shopkeeper sold them at the rate of 4,125 for 50 pencil boxes, then he sold them at the rate of:

= 4125 / 50

= 82.50 per pencil box.

Therefore the percentage profit will be:

= Gain / Cost price × 100

= (82.50 - 75) / 75 × 100

= 7.5/75 × 100

= 10%
