Answer: C, 7.5
Step-by-step explanation: Since he can ring up 2 customers in 8 minutes, that would mean he can ring up 4 in 16 minutes. He could also ring up 6 in 24 minutes. He could do this since every two customers is 8 minutes. 4 minutes would mean he could do 1 customer and 2 minutes would be .5 customer. So, at 24 minutes he could ring 6 customers and a extra 6 minutes to 30 minutes would add 1.5 customers to a total of 7.5 customers in half an hour (30 minutes)
For this question , you just need to divide 1 7/8 with 1/12
1 7/8 : 1/12
= 15/8 : 1/12
= 15/8 x 12/1
= 22.5 bags.
So i guess she can make around 22 full bags
hope this helps
Answer:
a= 18 girls in the class, b= 20 boys and 15 girls, 12 oranges better price.
Step-by-step explanation:
for question a, there are 18 girls in the class, this is how i worked it out:
the ratio of boys to girls is 4:3.
there are 24 boys.
24 is 6 times more than 4.
if boys are 6 times more than the original ratio, we also have to times the amount of girls by 6.
6x3= 18.
for question b i got 20 boys and 15 girls, this is how i did it.
there are 35 students in total.
4:3= boys to girls.
4+3=7
7 goes into 35 five times.
ratio of boys to girls is 4:3 so 5x4 for boys = 20 and 3x5 for girls = 15.
answer= 20 boys and 15 girls.
12 oranges is a better deal, this is how i worked it out.
it is 60 for 12 oranges.
it is 48 for 8 oranges.
12x5= 60 , 8x6=48.
you only have to times 12 by 5 to get it to the price but you have to times 8 by 6 to get it to the price, proving that 12 oranges for 60 is a better deal.
Volume of a cone = (1/3) * Area of Base * height
144 * 3 / 9 = Area of Base
Area of the Base = 48
