Answer:

1 and two-thirds yards

Step-by-step explanation:

5⅓ = 3⅔ + y. Subtract 3⅔ from both sides.

It may be useful to use improper fractions.

16/3 – 11/3 = y

5/3 = y

5/3 is equivalent to 1⅔

If 12 workers can dig a tunnel in 100 days, how long will it take 20 workers to dig the tunnel
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

60 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is  a proportion question. You compare two ratios. Unfortunately it is an inverse ratio.

12 = k/100                   Multiply both sides by 100

1200 = k

20 = k/x                       Multiply both sides by x

20x = k

20x = 1200                 Divide by 20

20x/20 = 1200/20

x = 60 days.  

An inverse proportion works by making a constant k. The  constant k makes the days shorter when the number of people increases. You should expect that. More people , less time.

From the cars parked in the lot he will earn (40)($10)=$400, but he will need to pay $50 for the rent. Thus his total $ earned will be $400-$50=$350.
