Step-by-step explanation:

Old Railroad Car:

  • 1 day of coal in 15 hours
  • 1/15 days of coal in 1 hour

New Railroad Car:

  • 1 day of coal in 10 hours
  • 1/10 days of coal in 1 hour

Total number of days of coal in 1 hour

= 1/15 + 1/10 = 1/6.

Since there is 1/6 days of coal in 1 hour,

there will be 1 day of coal in 6 hours.

It will take them 6 hours to transport the supply.

3) Last year Kerry’s take home pay was £15 000 She spent 40% of her take home pay on rent. She used the rest of her take home pa
gregori [183]
3,000. You take 15,000 and multiply by .4 to get how much she spent on rent (6,000). They you subtract the rent money from her total pay to get her money that she spent on living expenses, clothes and entertainment in total (9,000). Since she spent her money in six parts (3+2+1), you divide 9,000 by 6 to get 1,500 to get each part. Since for entertainment she has two parts you multiply 1,500 by 2 to get 3,000.
