Answer: 2 1/8 pounds of apples were left to give his grandmother.

Step-by-step explanation:

He picked a total of 8 1/4 pounds. Converting 8 1/4 pounds to improper fraction, it becomes 33/4 pounds.

He took 3 3/4 pounds to his aunt. Converting 3 3/4 pounds to improper fraction, it becomes 15/4 pounds.

He also took 2 3/8 to his mother. Converting 2 3/8 pounds to improper fraction, it becomes 19/8 pounds.

The total number of apples that he gave to his aunt and mother is

15/4 + 19/8 = 49/8 pounds

The number of pounds of apples left to give his grandmother is

33/4 - 49/8 = 17/8 = 2 1/8 pounds

In 1970, a farmer using a two-row combine with a corn head could easily harvest 0.75 ha (1.85 acres) per hour and a typical corn
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The value is w = 6.7 \%

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally the productivity rate is mathematically represented as

P_r =  K  * Z

Here K is the ha the farmer could harvest in an hour and Z is a typical yield of corn in kg/ha

Now considering 1970

The productivity rate is

P_r =  0.75   *5000

=> P_r =  3750 \  kg/h

Now considering 1940

The productivity rate is given as P_R =  250 \ kg/h

Generally the productivity ratio is mathematically ration is mathematically represented as

w =  \frac{P_R}{P_r}  * 100

=> w =  \frac{250}{3750}  * 100

=> w = 6.7 \%
