Answer:

There are a total of 20 picks

Step-by-step explanation:

Great question, it is always good to ask away and get rid of any doubts that you may be having.

Since we are given 3 values with 1 variable, and since this is a ratio problem. Then we can use the Rule of Three technique in order to solve this problem. The Rule of Three technique is shown in the picture attached below.

3 oranges ⇒ 5 picks

12 oranges ⇒ x picks

$\frac{12*5}{3} = x$

$20 = x$

As we can see from the calculation above there are a total of 20 picks

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

To find :-

The side of the square .

Solution :-

As we know ,

Area = side²
4.9 * 1.6 = a²
a = √ 49/10 * 16/10
a = 7/10 * 4/10
a = 28/100
a = 0.28 m
