The scale on the map is 1 in = 13.5 units
135/10 = 13.5
Watch closely. I'll try to go slow.
Stop me if I go too fast, or if I do anything that you don't understand.
Ready ?
You said d = r t
Divide each side by ' t ' : d / t = r
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Length of railroad car = 6 inches
The length of railroad track = 5 feet
We will convert this length into inches.
1 feet = 12 inches
5 feet = 12*5 = 60 inches
Let,
x be the number of cars.
Number of cars * Length of each car = Length of track
Dividing both sides by 6
10 cars can fit on railroad track.
2x/3-6=4. 2x/3=4+6. 2x/3=10. 2x=10*3. 2x=30. X=30/2. x=15.
