Answer:

25.92 foot strides

Step-by-step explanation:

The man will take 120/5 = 24 five foot stride to cover the initial 120 foot advantage of the child.

Within this time, the child would have covered an additional 24/5 x 2 = 9.6 extra foot stride.

Within this 9.6 food stride of the child, the man will have to take an additional 9.6/5= 1.96 strides.

Total foot stride by the man will be 24 + 1.96 = 25.92 foot strides.

Answer:

240.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the correct question: Three sister are getting new outfits. shirts cost 11 each,skirts coat 25 each and shoes cost 44 a pair. what is the total cost of the new outfits for all of the sisters​?

Given: Cost of each shirt is 11

           Cost of each skirts coat is 25

           Cost of each pair of shoes cost is 44.

Now, finding total cost of shirt, skirt coat and shoes as cost of one new outfit.

= 11+25+44 = 80

∴ Total cost of one new outfit is 80.

Next, finding cost of new outfit for all, three sisters.

Cost of new outfit for three sister = \textrm { cost of one outfit}\times \textrm{ number of sisters}

Does ANYONE know?????
daser333 [38]

Answer:

150 votes were casted

Step-by-step explanation:

So first, we know that Amy received 48 votes. Then Neil received 1/4 as many votes as Amy. So we can divide 48 by 4:

48/4=12

Neil got 12 votes. We also know that Neil and Amy's votes together is only 40% of the votes casted in total. So we can add their votes together and then find a fifth of the votes casted by dividing the 40% in half:

12+48=60

60/2=30

So now 30 votes are 20% of the total votes casted, now we just have to multiply by 5:

30*5=150

150 votes were casted
