Answer:
The smaller bottle holds 12.5 ml of perfume.
====================
<h2>Given</h2>
- Two bottles of similar shape;
- Larger bottle has volume of 100 ml;
- The length of larger bottle is 10 cm;
- The length of smaller bottle is 5 cm.
<h2>To find </h2>
- The volume of smaller bottle.
<h2>Solution</h2>
Find the scale factor, the ratio of corresponding dimensions:
We know the volume is the function of three dimensions, therefore the ratio of volumes is the cube of the scale factor:
Substitute the known values and find the volume of small bottle:
The smaller bottle holds 12.5 ml of perfume.
Answer: 13.5 ounce bottle for $2.19
a 29.2 ounce bottle for $5.37
The 29.2 ounce bottle is better
Step-by-step explanation:
13.5 ounce bottle for $2.19
a 29.2 ounce bottle for $5.37
find the ratios
13.5/2.19 = $6.16 per unit
29.2/5.37 = $5.44 per unit
Answer:
2.4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let total work = X
Rate of work done = X ÷ time
Rate of A = X/4
Rate of B = X/6
If they work together, rate is the sum of their individual rates, i.e.
X/4 + X/6
= (3X + 2X)/12 (taking LCM)
=5X/12
Rate = X/time
5X/12 = X/time
time = X÷(5X/12)
time = X × 12/(5X)
time = 2.4 hours
Shortcut:
Product of individual times/sum of individual times
= (4×6)/(4+6)
=24/10
=2.4 hours
A gardener has 10 pounds of soil. Now he 5/8 of that soil for his garden. Let's solve how many pounds of soil did he used and how many pounds is left.
=> 5/8
=> 10 lbs / 8 = 1.25 lbs
=> 1.25 lbs * 5 = 6.25 lbs.
He used 6.25 lbs of soil for his garden and has 3.75 lbs of soil left.
