This math problem does not have a formula so we have to make one through analysis.

Here are the given details:

Money Per Page = $3.50/page
Job = 500 pages
Words Per Page = 250 words
Jim's Performance = 80 words/minute

Find:
Money Earned In Total = ?
Work Hour = ?

Here are the formula formulated through analysis:

Money Earned in Total = Money Per Page × Job
Work Hour = Job ÷ Jim's Performance

Solution:

Money Earned in Total = $3.50/page × 500 pages ; Multiply the numbers but cancel out the unit 'page'

Money Earned in Total = $1,750.00

Now, let's find the Work Hour:

Work Hour = 500 pages ÷ 80 words/minute ; in this case, we need to convert 500 pages to the total number of words all in all.

Conversion:

if 1 page = 250 words/page, therefore it is going to be:
500 pages × 250 words/page = 125,000 words ; we did this in order to have the unit 'page' to be cancelled out.

Now, let's substitute it.

Work Hour = 125,000 words ÷ 80 words/minute ; in this case, you can now cancel out the unit 'word'

Work Hour = 1,562.5 minutes ; since we are looking for hour, we need to convert it.

Conversion:

If 1 hour = 60 minutes, there it should be:
1,562.5 minutes ÷ 60 minutes/hour = 26.042 hours ; cancel out the unit 'minute'.

FINAL ANSWERS:
Money Earned in Total = $1,750.00
Work Hour = 26.042 hours

What ratio forms a proportion with 14/42?<br> A. 1/4<br> B. 7/21<br> C. 12/40<br> D. 28/80
koban [17]

Hey there!

"What ratio forms a proportion with \frac{14}{42} ?"

              - \frac{14}{45} =0.56 (for the decimal)

  • A) \frac{1}{4} =0.25 (incorrect)
  • B) \frac{7}{21} =0.33 (Incorrect)
  • C) \frac{12}{40} 0.3 (incorrect)
  • D) \frac{28}{80} 0.7 (incorrect)

But in order for you to solve this particular equation you'd have to go in with two (like multiplying by two)

  • 1\times2= 2 ;   4\times2 = 8 (incorrect)
  • 7\times 2= 14 ; 21\times2 = 42 (correct)
  • 12 \times2 = 24 ; 40\times 2 = 80 (incorrect)
  • 2 \times 28 = 56 ; 2\times 80 = 160 (incorrect)

Your result: \boxed{Answer: B. \frac{7}{21} }

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
