9 apples per basket

Peter is making 8 identical fruit baskets. If the baskets are identical, that means they all have the same amount of fruit in them. If I know how many apples were used, then I can divide that by the total number of baskets (8) to find out how many apples were used per basket.

12 oranges were used per basket. There were 8 baskets. 12 x 8 = 96, so 96 oranges were used in total.

168 - 96 = 72

There were 72 apples used in total.

There were the same amount of apples in each of the 8 fruit baskets. 72/8 = 9, which means that there were 9 apples per fruit basket.

I believe its 180.

I have seen this question before and the amount of girls was 220, so 400-220 is 180

Hope this helps :)

The scale from a square park to a drawing of the park is 5 miles to 1 miles. The actual park has an area of 1,600 m×2 what is th

Flauer [41]

The user corrected that the scale of a drawing of a park reads: 5 miles to 1 cm , and we know that the park measures 1,600 square meters (user insisted that this measure is given in square meters and not square miles).

So we have to convert the 1600 square meters into miles, knowing that 1 meter is the same as: 0.000621371 miles

then meters square will be equivalents to:

1 m^2 = (0.000621371 mi)^2

then 1600 m^2 = 0.00061776 mi^2

now, since 5 miles are represented by 1 cm, then 25 square miles will be represented by 1 square cm

and therefore 0.00061776 square miles will be the equivalent to:

0.00061776 / 25 cm^2 = 0.000024710 cm^2

So and incredibly small number of square cm.

I still believe that some of the information you gave me are not in meters but in miles. (For example, the park may not be in square meters but in squared miles). The park seems to have the size of a house according to the info.
