Answer:

126

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of postcard with stamp on it =x

Out of 350 postcards, x has stamp on it.

Out of 75 postcards, 27 has stamp on it.

Expressing these as a ratio:

350:x=75:27

350/x=75/27

Cross multiply

75x=350*27

x=(350*27)/75

x= 126

Therefore, the the total number of postcards in the box with stamps on them is 126.

crimeas [40]

Hi,

\sqrt{163} = 12.76

There are no other simple steps to reduce the square root of one hundred and sixty-three.

The actual square root value is ≈12.767145334803704

But we have taken only significant figures and it is as 12.76.


Hope it helps! :)
