The riddle given by Dr. Watson to Sherlock Holmes is:
217 is to 335
896 is to 543
345 is to ____
We need to find the missing number of the third pair of the riddle. This is a ratio and proportion problem.
217/ 335 = 896/ 543 = 345 / x
The value of x is 209.
If we need to choose the closest answer from the above given ones it is 6471.
SOLUTION:
Diameter(d)= 8
Radius(r)= d/2=8/2 =4,,
Height of cylinder (h)= 12
So,
Volume of cylinder = Pi r^2*h
=22/7 * 4^2 * 12
=4224/7
=603.42,,
Hey there!
Let's solve this equation.
5x+3x-4=10
add the x's
8x-4=10
add 4 to both sides
8x=10+4
8x=14
divide both sides by 8
x=14/8
Reduce the fraction;
x=7/4 (improper fraction)
x=1+3/4 (mixed number)
Hence, the equation has 1 solution.
Hope everything is clear.
Let me know if you have any questions!

well, we know the actual distance is 612, however the estimate is 735, is off by 735 - 612 = 123.
now if we take 612 to be the 100%, what is 123 off of it in percentage?
