Answer:
the answer is d
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 3 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, 6 yellow marbles, 8 black marbles, 4 silver marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
I know these are the correct number of marbles because I set up these numbers as fractions and solved for x.
For examples, 2/16 of the marbles are red. 2/16=x/24
You would do this because we are trying to find the number of marbles that are red out of the 24 marbles.
Next, we would do 24 divided by 16= 1.5 Then 1.5 times 2=3
You would follow this rule for each fraction of marbles in order to find the true number of marbles out of 24.
Answer:
10⁵ billion
Step-by-step explanation:
given that distance from sun to earth
= 1.5 x 10⁸ km (we need to convert this to millimeters)
= 1.5 x 10⁸ km x 1 million mm per km
= 1.5 x 10⁸ km x 1,000,000 mm/km
= 1.5 x 10⁸ km x 10⁶ mm/km
= 1.5 x 10⁸ x 10⁶
= 1.5 x 10⁽⁸ ⁺ ⁶⁾
= 1.5 x 10¹⁴ mm
also given that a quarter is 1.5mm thick, hence the number of quarters that will span the distance between the sun an earth (i.e 1.5 x 10¹⁴ mm)
= 1.5 x 10¹⁴ mm ÷ 1.5 mm/quarter
= 10¹⁴
= 100,000,000,000,000 (remember that a billion has 9 zeros)
= 100,000 billion
= 10⁵ billion
