Answer:

1 1/4 liters of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

Clare is painting some doors that are all the same size. She used 2 liters of paint to cover 1LaTeX: \frac{3}{5}3 5 doors. How many liters of paint are needed for 1 door?

From the above question, we can deduce that:

2 liters of paint covers 1 3/5 doors

Hence:

1 3/5 doors = 2 liters of paint

1 door = x liters of paint

Cross Multiply

1 3/5 doors × x liters = 2 liters × 1 door

x liters = 2 liters × 1 door/ 1 3/5 doors

x liters = 2 ÷ 1 3/5

x liters = 2 ÷ 8/5

x liters = 2 × 5/8

x liters = 5/4 liters

x liters = 1 1/4 liters of paint

Hence: 1 1/4 liters of paint is needed for 1 door

Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the side length of the base is
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

1529.4 m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the formula V = 1/3*h*B for the volume of the pyramid, where V is volume, h is height, and B is are of the base.

First, since we know h and are looking for V, we need B. To find this, since it has a square base, we multiply b, the base length, by itself. 15.3m * 15.3m = 234.09m^2.

Next, we plug into the formula.

V = 1/3*19.6m*234.09m^2

And simplify:

V= 1/3 * 4,588.164m^3

V= 15.29.3879....

Last, round to the tenth

1529.4 m^3

How do you figure out what is that makes a number a prime
Mice21 [21]
<span>Prime numbers are the numbers that are bigger than one and cannot be divided evenly by any other number except 1 and itself. If a number can be divided evenly by any other number not counting itself and 1, it is not prime and is referred to as a composite number. Prime numbers are whole numbers that must be greater than 1. Zero and one are not considered prime numbers. Learn how to determine which numbers are prime.
