Kevin had to measure the diameter of a hair strand and the diameter of a grain of sand for his science experiment. He found the

This is the concept of linear scale factors. 
Diameter of hair strand is 0.00006=6×10^-5 inches
Diameter of sand grain is 1.3x10^-3 inches
Thus the the number of times the hair sand grain is bigger than hair strand will be:
linear scale factor=(diameter of sand grain)/(diameter of hair strand)
=(1.3×10^-3)/(6×10^-5)
=21 2/3 times

if you take the reverse of the square which is the square root of 9.2 you get about 3.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

$333.33

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is a little bit confusing, but I am assuming you mean to say that the 72% of the total pay, which is the amount he took home, is $240. So, then you can set up a proportion to solve the problem.


72\frac{72}{100} = \frac{240}{x}

Then, you multiply the proportion out, getting 72x = 240*100

multiply the right side out and then divide by 72 to get $333.33
