Answer:

<em>2 gallons </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If Han used 1 1/2 gallons of paint to paint 3/5 of a shed, this can be expressed as;

1 1/2 gallons = 3/5 of the shed

3/2gallons = 3/5 of the shed

To find the number of gallons that will paint the whole shed, we will say;

x gallons = 1 shed

Divide both expressions

3/2/x = 3/5

3/2x = 3/4

2x * 3 = 3*4

6x = 12

x = 12/6

x = 2

<em>Hence 2 gallons will be needed for the whole shed</em>

Tim is constructing a triangle with sides measuring 3 inches and 6 inches. Which could not be the length of the third side? A 2
Leno4ka [110]
The answer is A 2.

The third side must be > A - B or 6 - 3 = 3.

The third side must be > 3 so only 2 does not fit.

4^3 = ?<br><br>A. 64<br>B. 7<br>C. 12<br>D. 1
Alexxandr [17]

By defining how exponents work, we conclude that 4^3 = 64, so the correct option is A.

<h3>How to find the cube of 4?</h3>

Let's remember how exponents work.

If we have a number a to the exponent n:

a^n

It means that we need to multiply the number a by itself n times.

Then, in this case:

4^3

Can be rewritten to.

4*4*4

Now we can solve that product:

4*4*4 = (4*4)*4 = 16*4 = 64

Then we conclude that the correct option is A

4^3 = 64

On Monday, a factory used 11/15 a ton of grapes to make grape juice. Tuesday required 14/30 a ton more than the amount on Monday
Rudiy27

Answer:

1 ton on wednesday!

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to go step by step for this one.

On monday the factory used 11/15 of a ton, while tuesday required 14/30 a ton more than that. To find tuesday's amount we must take 11/15 and add 14/30 to that.

11/15 + 14/30 = 1 1/5

Tuesday = 1 1/5 of a ton

On wednesday the factory uses 5/6 of the amount used on tuesday, which is 1 and 1/5 of a ton.

1 1/5 times 5/6 = 6/5 times 5/6

Anything multiplied by their reciprocal is 1, so the answer is 1. On wednesday 1 ton of grapes was used on wednesday!

The length of the rectangular field is two times its breadth. If the perimeter of the field is 300m, find the length and breadth
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Youu can call the breadth x and then, as the length is two times the breadth, it would be 2x.

So now when we call x to the breadth and 2x to the length we can do an equation, as we know the sum of the four sides is 300 meters, so

2x + 2x + x + x = 300

6x = 300

x = 300/6 = 50

We know that the breadth is 50m, and, the length, which is twice the breadth, would be 100m in this exercise.

SO in this case, the breadth is 50 meters and the length is 100 meters..
