Answer:

$3\frac{3}{4}$ cups of sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:

A recipe needs the number of cups of sugar = $\frac{5}{4}$ cups

If the recipe is tripled this means if the recipe becomes 3 times in amount.

The amount of sugar is needed = $\frac{5}{4}\times 3$

= $\frac{5\times 3}{4}$

= $\frac{15}{4}$

= $3\frac{3}{4}$ cups

If you triple the recipe, you need $3\frac{3}{4}$ cups of sugar.

Find the surface area of the triangular prism

lesya692 [45]

The surface area of the triangular prism is 1664 square inches.

Explanation:

Given that the triangular prism has a length of 20 inches and has a triangular face with a base of 24 inches and a height of 16 inches.

The other two sides of the triangle are 20 inches each.

We need to determine the surface area of the triangular prism.

The surface area of the triangular prism can be determined using the formula,

$SA= bh+pl$

where b is the base, h is the height, p is the perimeter and l is the length

From the given the measurements of b, h, p and l are given by

$b=24$ , $h= 16$ , $l=20$ and

$p=20+20+24=64$

Hence, substituting these values in the above formula, we get,

$SA= (24\times16)+(64\times20)$

Simplifying the terms, we get,

$SA=384+1280$

Adding the terms, we have,

$SA=1664 \ square \ inches$

Thus, the surface area of the triangular prism is 1664 square inches.

sarah, natasha and richard share some sweets in the ratio 5:2:4. sarah gets 60 sweets. how many did richard get?

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

48 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

5:2:4

Sarah: 5

Natasha:2

Richard:4

To find out how many sweets Richard got, we need to use 60 as the lcm. Since, we have a definite constant of 60 we need to divide it by the presiding ratio.

60/5 = 12

That means for a ratio of 1, everyone in the group recieves 12.

Now, we plug it in for each of the members.

5x = Sarah

2x = Natasha

4x = Richard

Sarah = 60 sweets

Natasha = 24 sweets

Richard = 48 sweets
