Answer:

14 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount earned by gardener for each day worked = $60

Amount paid by gardener for each day when absent = $15

Total number of days = 20

Let the total number of days when the gardener was working = x

Then he was absent for (20 - x) days.

Total amount earned during this period = $750

Then, \[60x - 15(20-x) = 750\]


=> \[60x + 15x - 300 = 750\]

=> \[75x = 1050\]

=> x = 14

So the gardener worked for 14 days out of 20.

Problemas de razonamiento división de números decimales. Ayer Susana se fue de viaje a visitar a unos familiares. Recorrió 135,7
schepotkina [342]

Usando las relaciones entre velocidad, distancia y tiempo, se encuentra que ella condujo a una velocidad media de 90,5 km/h.

--------------------------

La <u>velocidad </u><u>es la distancia dividida por el tiempo</u>, por lo que:

v = \frac{d}{t}

  • Total de 135,75 km, o sea, d = 135,75
  • Llego en 1,5 horas, o sea, t = 1,5

La velocidad es:

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{135,75}{1,5}

División de decimales, o sea, seguimos multiplicando los números por 10 hasta que ninguno sea decimal:

v = \frac{135,75}{1,5} = \frac{1357,5}{15} = \frac{13575}{150} = 90,5

Ella condujo a una velocidad media de 90,5 km/h.

Karla makes paper airplanes. Today, it takes her 32 min to make 16 paper airplanes.
Pavel [41]

Answer:

48/b

Step-by-step explanation:

32÷16=2 so it takes two minutes per airplane. if she makes airplanes for 96 minutes at the same pace (2 min per airplane) then you need to divide 96 by 2 which gives you 48!
