25% is 1/4.
This means that 1/4 of the books in the library is 54, so just multiply 54 by 4, which gives you 100%, or all of the books. 54 times 4 is equal to 216, so there are 216 books in the library.
Answer:
I've done this question: Its batch 5
Step-by-step explanation:
It has to be all equal proportions
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hooke's Law applies here, which is a linear relationship. It would be easier to solve this using proportions with N of force on the top and the amount of stretch in cm on the bottom. Set up with our unknown, the number of cm:
and cross multiply:
20x = 300 so
x = 15 cm
Depth of the bathtub = 18 inches
Time taken to fill 3 inches of the bathtub = 2 minutes
Then
The amount of depth needed to fill with water = (18-3) inches
= 15 inches
Time required to fill 15 inches of the bathtub = (15*2)/3 minutes
= 30/3 minutes
= 10 minutes
So John is correct in thinking that it will take 10 more minutes for the water to reach the top of the tub if he continues at the same rate.
Hope this helps!
