Answer:
6 1/2 cubic feet
Step-by-step explanation:
A carton has a length of 2 1/6 feet
The width is 1 1/5 feet
The height is 2 1/2 feet
Therefore the volume of the carton can be calculated as follows
= length × width × height
= 2 1/6 × 1 1/5 × 2 1/2
= 13/6 × 6/5 × 5/2
= 390/60
= 13/2
= 6 1/2 cubic feet
Hence the volume of the carton is 6 1/2 cubic feet
The answer is: [C]: "30%" .

Note that: "%" ; or "percent" means "out of 100" ; or "divided by 100" .

Method 1)
15/50 = ?/ 100 ;
Look at the denominators:
50 * (what value?) = 100 ? ; → "100 ÷ 50 = 2" ;
→ 50 * 2 = 100 ;
So: "15/50 = (15*2)/(50*2) = "30/100" ; which is "30%" .

Method 2:
___________________________________________
"15/50" = (15÷5) / (50÷5) = 3/10 ;
3/10 = (3*10) / (10*10) = 30/100 ; which is: "30%" .
__________________________________________
Method 3: (slight variation of "Method 2" above):
___________________________________________
"15/50" = (15÷5) / (50÷5) = 3/10 ;
3/10 = 0.3 = 0.30 = (0.30 * 100) % = " 30% " .

Answer:
<em>9 sheep and 5 goats</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
s + g = 14
125s + 75g = 1500
125( 14 - g ) + 75g = 1500
1750 - 125 g + 75g = 1500
50g = 250
g = <em>5 goats</em>
s = <em>9 sheep</em>
Degree days are the difference between the daily temperature mean, (high temperature plus low temperature divided by two) and 65°F. 65°F because we assume that at this temperature we do not need cooling or heating.
In our case the daily mean temperature is 83°F and X is the number of cooling-degree days.
X=83-65
X=18
