A trucking company makes 50 deliveries in 5 days how long will it take for them to deliver 400

Mathematics

Nana76 [90]3 years ago
5 0

This is the application of ratio and proportion. You have to formulate the proportion for this problem:

50 deliveries : 5 days = 400 deliveries : x days

The inner numbers when multiplies should equal the product of the outer numbers.

400 (5) = 50x

50x = 2,000

x = 40

Therefore, it would take 40 days for the trucking company to deliver 400 deliveries.

An ostrich run 6 mile in12 minut how far he could come in 40 minutes
bogdanovich [222]

The ostrich can run 20 miles in 40 minutes.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that, An ostrich run 6 mile in 12 minutes

Now, according to the given information  

Ostrich runs 6 miles ⇒ 12 minutes

Then, “n” miles ⇒ 40 minutes

Now, by criss cross multiplication we get,

\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow 6 \times 40=n \times 12} \\\\ {\rightarrow 40=n \times 2} \\\\ {\rightarrow n=20}\end{array}

Hence, the ostrich can run 20 miles in 40 minutes
