To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 120 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 120, so we can write it down as 100%=120.
4. We know, that x% equals 371 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=371.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=120
2) x%=371
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=120/371
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 371 is what percent of 120

100%/x%=120/371
(100/x)*x=(120/371)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.323450134771*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.323450134771) to get x
100/0.323450134771=x
309.166666667=x
x=309.166666667

now we have:
371 is 309.166666667% of 120

A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. A delivery of
Tema [17]

Answer:

Small box weighs 13.75 kg & large box weighs 15.75 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write 2 simultaneous equation and solve for weight of each box.

<em>Let weight of large box be l and small box be s.</em>

<em />

"<u>3 large boxes and  5 small boxes has a total weight of  116 kilograms</u>":

3l+5s=116

and

"<u>9 large boxes and  7 small boxes has a total weight of  238 kilograms</u>":

9l+7s=238

<em>Now we can solve for l in the 1st equation and put it into 2nd equation and get s:</em>

<em>3l+5s=116\\3l=116-5s\\l=\frac{116-5s}{3}</em>

<em>now,</em>

<em>9l+7s=238\\9(\frac{116-5s}{3})+7s=238\\3(116-5s)+7s=238\\348-15s+7s=238\\348-238=15s-7s\\110=8s\\s=\frac{110}{8}=13.75</em>

<em />

<em>now we plug in 13.75 into s into equation of l to find s:</em>

<em>l=\frac{116-5s}{3}\\l=\frac{116-5(13.75)}{3}\\l=15.75</em>

The area of a rectangle is 27 m^2 , and the length of the rectangle is 3 m less than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the
vagabundo [1.1K]
Let L be the length of the rectangle and W be the width. In the problem it is given that L=2W-3. It is also given that the area LW=27. Substituting in the length in terms of width, we have W(2W-3)=27 \\ 2W^2-3W-27=0 \\ (2W-9)(W+3)=0. Using the zero product property, 2W-9=0 \text{ or } W+3=0. Solving these we get the width W=4.5 \text{ or } -3. However, it doesn't make sense for the width to be negative, so the width must be \boxed{4.5 \text{ m}}. From that we can tell the length L=2(4.5)-3=\boxed{6 \text{ m}}.
