the complete question is
While driving in an exotic foreign land you see a speed limit sign on a highway that reads 180,000 furlongs per fortnight. How many miles per hour is this? (One furlong is 1/8 mile, and a fortnight is 14 days. A furlong originally referred to the length of a plowed furrow.)
Step 1
<u>convert (furlongs per fortnight) to (miles per fortnight)</u>
180,000 furlongs per fortnight=180,000*(1/8)=22,500 miles per fortnight
Step 2
<u>convert miles per fortnight to miles per hour</u>
1 day=24 hour
14 day=24*14=336 hours
22,500 miles per fortnight=22,500/336=66.96 mph
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
66.96 mph
Total moving cost is $2176.875 including tax.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost for loading/unloading service= $95 per hour
Total cost for loading/unloading services = 95 x 6
= $750
Cost for packing/unpacking service= $80 per hour
Total cost for packing/unpacking= 80 x 5
= $400
Trunk rent = $5 per mile
Total distance= 175miles
Total rent = 175 x 5
= $875
Total cost = 750 + 400 + 875
= $2025
Tax = 2025 x (7.5/100)
Tax = $151.875
Total cost including tax = 2025 + 151.875
= $2176.875
Total moving cost is $2176.875 including tax.
"Alaina’s sugar cookie recipe calls for 2 1/4
cups of flour per batch. If she wants to make 2/3
a batch of cookies, how much flour should she use?"
1 1/2 Cups, if she wants to make less than the original recipe, she would need less flour, you have to divide.
Answer:
The answer is 7.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we're looking for half of 15, divide 15 by 2 (or multiply 15 by 0.5, it's the same thing) and you get 7.5.
I hope this helped! :)
