Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I will first answer your question with the data you have provided, then offer two other ways to solve the problem with alternative data:

You have stated that 5 miles is approximately 8 kilometers. As a ratio this is 5 mi / 8 km

Now create a proportion :

5 mi / 8 km = X mi / 60 km

Miles is to kilometers as miles is to kilometers.

Now cross multiply to solve for X.

8 X = 300

X = 37.5 miles

There are several other ways we can answer this question

sarah spent a total of 10 on oranges and apples at the supet market. if she spent 3 dollars less for oranges than she did on app

beks73 [17]

Let's write 2 equations from the two statements given.

Sarah spent 10 dollars on both oranges and apples

Let the price of oranges be "x" and price of apples be "y", thus we can write:

$x+y=10$

Oranges cost 3 less than apples, thus we can say:

$y-3=x$

We can substitute this into the first equation and solve for y:

$\begin{gathered} x+y=10 \\ y-3+y=10 \\ 2y=10+3 \\ 2y=13 \\ y=\frac{13}{2} \\ y=6.5 \end{gathered}$

Thus, let's solve for x now,

$\begin{gathered} x=y-3 \\ x=6.5-3 \\ x=3.5 \end{gathered}$

We want the price of oranges (x), thus,

Price of Oranges = $3.50

slega [8]

Answer:

i. weight of wastage(kg) = 179.775 kg

ii. weight of rice cultivated = 765 kg - 179. 775 kg = 585.225 kg

percentage of rice cultivated = 100 - 23.5 = 76.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

A land of 1000 sq. meter is used to cultivate 765 kg of rice with wastage of 23.5%.

i. The wastage in percentage is 23.5% but the weight of the wastage in weight is 23.5% of 765 kg

weight of wastage = 23.5/100 × 765

weight of wastage = 17977.5/100

weight of wastage(kg) = 179.775 kg

ii. weight and percentage of rice cultivated.

weight of rice cultivated = 765 kg - 179. 775 kg = 585.225 kg

percentage of rice cultivated = 100 - 23.5 = 76.5%
