Vilka [71]3 years ago

Answer:

He will read 72 chapters in 1 day

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use the ratio method to solve this question

∵ Sam read 6 chapters in 2 hours

∵ He continues to read at this same rate for 1 day

→ We must change the day to hours

∵ 1 day = 24 hours

∴ We need to find how many chapters he will read in 24 hours

→ Chapter  :  Hour

→   6            :   2

→   x            :   24

→ By using cross multiplication

∵ x × 2 = 6 × 24

∴ 2x = 144

→ Divide both sides by 2

∵ \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{144}{2}

∴ x = 72

∴ He will read 72 chapters in 1 day

6. At a game, there were 24 adults and 10 children. Keeping the same ratio,
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The total number of adults will be: 120 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there were 24 adults and 10 children in a game.

Thus, adults to children ration = 24:10 or 24/10

  • If there were 50 children, how many adults would be at the game?

Let 'x' be the number of adults when there 50 children.

so the ration of adults 'x' to 50 childern = x: 50 or x / 50

As the ratio is the same.

Thus,

24 : 10 = x : 50

24/10 = x/50

switching sides

x/50  = 24/10

x  = 24/10 × 50

x = 120 adults

Therefore, the total number of adults will be: 120 adults
