Divide total weight by number of trucks:

110.4 / 4 = 27.6 tons per truck

You said that "each truck carries the same weight".
This means that the shipping manager DIVIDED the paper equally among the four trucks. Does that give you any ideas, hmm ?
How about DIVIDING the 110.4 tons into 4 equal parts, thenput one part on each truck.
110.4 tons DIVIDED by 4 = 27.6 tons

How would you divide 0.294/3?

Arte-miy333 [17]

$0.294:3= \frac{\big{294}}{\big{1000}} \cdot \frac{\big{1}}{\big{3}} = \frac{\big{2\cdot3\cdot49}}{\big{2\cdot500}} \cdot \frac{\big{1}}{\big{3}} = \frac{\big{49}}{\big{500}} \\\\\\0.294:3=(0.098\cdot3):3=0.098$

Situation: You want to buy three books that are on sale at 20% off. The original prices of the books are $2.50, $4.95, and $6.00

frozen [14]

Answer:

$2.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribution method:

.20(2.50, 4.95, 6.00)

(0.50, 0.99, 1.20)

Now add them up.

Non-distribution method:

$2.50 x .20 = 0.50

$4.95 x .20 = 0.99

$6.00 x .20 = 1.20

Add them up

Element X decays radioactively with a half life of 12 minutes. If there are 200

PolarNik [594]

$\textit{Amount for Exponential Decay using Half-Life} \\\\ A=P\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{t}{h}}\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{current amount}\dotfill &20\\ P=\textit{initial amount}\dotfill &200\\ t=\textit{elapsed time}\\ h=\textit{half-life}\dotfill &12 \end{cases} \\\\\\ 20=200\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{t}{12}}\implies \cfrac{20}{200}=\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{t}{12}}\implies \cfrac{1}{10}=\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{t}{12}}$

$\log\left( \cfrac{1}{10} \right)=\log\left[ \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{t}{12}} \right]\implies \log\left( \cfrac{1}{10} \right)=t\log\left[ \left( \sqrt[12]{\frac{1}{2}} \right) \right] \\\\\\ \cfrac{\log\left( \frac{1}{10} \right)}{\log\left[ \left( \sqrt[12]{\frac{1}{2}} \right) \right]}=t\implies \implies \stackrel{mins}{39.9}\approx t$
