8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. you could just divide 54 by 8 or 6 by 2 to get what your multipllying by.

2. when you divide 54 by 18 you get 3, same as 6 divided by 3= 2

3. so you check it out and think 2*3=6*3=18*3=54

In RSM camp, there are four counselors for every fifty seven students and three teachers for every five counselors.

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Students : Counselors : Teachers = 285: 20 : 12

Step-by-step explanation:

In the camp, the ratio of:

( C: S ) Counselors : Students is 4 : 57

( T: C ) Teachers : Counselors is 3 : 5

To determine the ratio of - Students : Counselors : Teachers

Here given - C : S = 4 : 57

Multiplying both sides by 5, we get

C: S = 4 x 5 : 57 x 5 = 20 : 285

So, for every 20 counselors, there are 285 students ...... (1)

Similarly, given Teachers : Counselors is 3 : 5

Multiplying both sides by 4, we get

T : C = 3 x 4 : 5 x 4 = 12 : 20

So, for every 12 teachers, there are 20 Counselors ...... (2)

Hence, in both equation 1 and 2 the number of counselors is same = 20 .

Hence, both the ratios acne be combined.

So we get C : S = 20 : 285 and T : C = 12: 20

Inverting the values

⇒ S : C = 285 : 20 and C : T = 20 : 12

or, S : C : T = 285: 20 : 12

or, Students : Counselors : Teachers = 285: 20 : 12

Hence, for every 285 students there are 20 counselors and 12 teachers.

Irving can I remember the correct order of the five digits on his ID number he does remember that the ID number contains the dig

Cloud [144]

Answer: $\frac{27}{125}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the total numbers are 1, 4, 3, 7, 6

Since the total number of possible arrangement = $5\times 5 \times5 \times 5 \times 5=5^5$

The total number of the odd numbers in the given numbers = 3

Thus the possible arrangement that the first three digits will be odd numbers = $3\times 3\times 3\times 5\times 5=3^3\times 5^2$

Thus, the probability that the first three digits of Irvings ID number will be odd numbers = the possible arrangement that the first three digits will be odd numbers / total possible arrangement = $\frac{3^3\times 5^2}{5^5} = \frac{3^2}{5^{5-2}}$

= $\frac{3^3}{5^3} = \frac{27}{125}$

John is at a local bait shop; he wants to buy bait for his fishing trip. At the store, they are selling live bait for $12 a poun

Monica [59]

The system of inequalities is: $x\geq 3$ and $12x+7y\leq 63$

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Let $x$ be the amount of live bait and $y$ be the amount of natural bait.

As John would like to get at least 3 pounds of live bait, so the first inequality will be: $x\geq 3$

Given that, price of live bait is $12 per pound and natural bait is $7 per pound. Also, he only has a budget of $63. That means, he can spend maximum $63

So, the cost for buying $x$ pound of live bait $=\$12x$ and the cost for buying $y$ pound of natural bait $=\$7y$

Thus, the second inequality will be: $12x+7y\leq 63$
