There are 59 people going on a field trip.

1 answer:

3 0

You first multiply 6 and 8 to see how many people are put in the vans without rented a van. This would equal 48. You then subtract 48 from 59 to see how many people still need to be in a van. This would leave you with 11 people. Then you divide 8 from 11 to get 1 3/8. This means you need 2 vans to fit everyone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the lengths are 2x and 7x since thery are in the ratio of 2 :7

Such that Length of the shorter string = 2x

and the longer string = 7x so that the difference in Length which is 90cm can be expressed as

7x- 2x= 90

5x= 90

x 90/5

x= 18

shorter string = 2 x = 2x 18= 36cm

Longer strring = 7x 18=126cm

malfutka [58]

Answer:

$150$ potatoes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the assistant can peel $18$ potatoes in $6$ minutes, we know that he can peel $\frac{18}{6}=3$ potatoes in $1$ minute. Therefore, he will be able to peel $3*50=150$ potatoes in $50$ minutes. Hope this helps!
