Answer:
they are 11/10, 12/10 ,13/10, 14/10, 15/10
Original Figure:
Length = 15
Width = 5
Height = 10
Volume = Length*Width*Height
Volume = 15*5*10
Volume = 750
New Figure
Length = 3
Width = 1
Height = 2
Each dimension has been divided by 5 (eg: 15/5 = 3)
Volume = Length*Width*Height
Volume = 3*1*2
Volume = 6
The old volume was 750 and it changes to 6
Notice how 750/6 = 125
Which can be rearranged to 750/125 = 6
Answer: if you divide the old volume by 125, then you get the new volume
Note: the new volume is 125 times smaller than the old volume
Put another way, the old volume is 125 times larger compared to the new volume
The fact that 125 = 5^3 is not a coincidence. If you divide each dimension by some number k, then you divide the volume by k^3
The answer is C ten years. 2.5 percent of 2000 is 50 so take 50 and divide it by 500 which equals 10

Given Information
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total number of people = 165
Adult = $6
Child = $2
Total collected = $618
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assumptions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let x be the number of adults and y be the number of children
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form equations
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total number of people
x + y = 165
Total amount collected
6x + 2y = 618
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ans: The two equations are x + y = 165 and 6x + 2y = 618
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The question is not asking for it but if you need to solve the equation to find the answer to x and y
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Present the two equations and solve for x and y
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 165 ------------------------- (eqn 1)
6x + 2y = 618 ------------------------- (eqn 2)
(eqn 1) :
x + y = 165
x = 165 - y ------------------------- substitute into (eqn 2)
6(165 - y) + 2y = 618
990 - 6y + 2y = 618
4y = 990 - 618
4y = 372
y = 93 ------------------------- substitute into (eqn 1)
x + y = 165
x + 93 = 165
x = 165 - 93
x = 72
x = 72 and y = 93
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ans: 72 adults and 93 children
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
