Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{2.00 in}}  

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a rectangular solid is  

V = lwh

\begin{array}{rcl}V & = & lwh\\187 & = & 8.5 \times 11 \times h\\& = & 93.5h\\h & = &\dfrac{187}{93.5}\\\\& = & \textbf{2.00 in}\\\end{array}\\\text{The ream is $\large \boxed{\textbf{2.00 in}}$ thick.}

Matthew visited the fruits garden last weekend and helped farmers count the fruits. There were 10% more dragon fruits than passi
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let number of passion fruits=x

number of dragon fruits=x+10% of x

=x+0.1 x=(1+0.1)x=1.1 x

total number of fruits=x+1.1 x=(1+1.1)x=2.1 x

1.1x+60% of 1.1x+x+9% of x=2.1x+75

1.1 x+0.6 of 1.1 x+x+0.09 of x=2.1x+75

1.1x+0.66 x+x+0.09 of x =2.1x+75

2.1 x+0.75x-2.1 x=75

0.75 x=75

\frac{75}{100}x =75\\x=75 \times \frac{100}{75} =100\\Originally ~total ~number~ of~ fruits=2.1x=2.1 \times100=210
