Answer:

16 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

Adam : Rob : Clare

4 : 5 : 8

Find the difference in units of Rob and Claire.

8 - 5 = 3 units

3 units = 12

1 unit = 12 ÷ 3 = 4

4 units = 4 x 4 = 16

Para embalar una caja se emplea 4,2 m de cinta adhesiva. ?Cuántas cajas se podrán embalar con tres rollos que tienen 3 hm, 7 dam
kompoz [17]

For this case, we perform the conversions:

First roll:

1 \ Hectometer --------> 100 \ meters\\3 \ Hectometer --------> x

x = \frac {3 * 100} {1}\\x = 300 \ meters.

We make a rule of three to determine the number of "c" boxes that can be packed with 300 meters of adhesive tape.

1 -----------> 4.2

c -----------> 300

c = \frac {300 * 1} {4.2}\\c = 71.42857143\\c = 71

You can pack 71 boxes.

Second roll:

1 \ Decametro --------> 10 \ meters\\7 \ Decameter --------> x\\x = \frac {7 * 10} {1}\\x = 70 \ meters.

We make a rule of three to determine the number of "c" boxes that can be packed with 70 meters of adhesive tape.

1 -----------> 4.2

c -----------> 70

c = \frac {70 * 1} {4.2}\\c = 16.66666667\\c = 16

You can pack 16 boxes.

Third roll:

1 -----------> 4.2

c -----------> 50

c = \frac {50 * 1} {4.2}\\c = 11.9047619\\c = 11

You can pack 11 boxes.

Thus, in total you can pack11 + 16 + 71 = 98 \ boxes

Answer:

98 boxes

let h= history books

science books = s

h=2s  there are 2 times as many history as science so to get them equal we double the science

h+s=81    there are 81 total history and science books

2s+s=81   substitute 2s for h in the above equation

3s = 81   combine like terms

s = 27

There are 27 science books

h=2s

h=2(27)

h=54
