Answer:
for this, I'm going to assume that the cacao powder costed $2.2. If the cacao costs $2.2 then the milk will cost $0.8.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you subtract 2.2 from 3 then you get 0.8. Also if you add 2.2 with 0.8 then you get 3. another way to simplify it is to add one zero on the end, like this 22+8=30.
To solve this problem we will start by calculating time needed for each of them to fill the pool.
We have formula:
Volume = rate * time
Or
time = volume / rate
Wilma:
time = 9900 / 900
time = 11h
Betty:
time = 9900 / 500
time = 19.8h
Now we substract these two numbers:
time_difference = 19.8 - 11 = 8.8h
Betty needs 8.8 hours more than Wilma to fill the pool.
Basically a proportion so it’d be 1in/300 mi = 3in/x mi
cross multiple that out and you get 300•3=x and then just solve for x. the answer should be 900 miles.
