We can use ratios to find the answer to this.
Set up the ratio.
3/4 / 18/7 = x / 1
Multiply both sides by 1
3/4 / 18/7 = x
Inverse 18/7 to 7/18 so we can multiply.
3/4 * 7/18 = x
Multiply.
21/72 = x
Simplify7/24 = x
Therefore, 7/24 cups of oats is used per pound.
Answer:
36 cubic yards
Step-by-step explanation:
If each cube is 1 cubic yard by 1 cubic yard, then there are 3 cubic yards for the width, 3 cubic yards for height, and 4 cubic yards for length. Finding the volume of a rectangular prism is L*W*H, 3*3*4 = 36. So, 36 cubic yards is your answer.
Number of plants = 5
Amount of soil present for 5 plants = 3/4 gallons
Now here we have to find how much soil will each plant get.
So we have to apply unitary method here to find how much would each plant get the share of soil.
Soil required by 5 plants = 3/4 gallons
Soil required by 1 plant = 3/4 divided by 5 = 3/20 gallons
Answer: Each plant will get 3/20 gallons of soil.
X=number of pounds
y=cost of pound .
x+y=cost
