Answer:
Janice and Karen could do in 1 day:
- <u>20% of the job</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
To identify how much of the job could janice and caren do in 1 day, first, we must find how much of the job make just 1 person at the same rate:
If three persons make a job in 3 1/3 days, 1 person make the job in x:
- 3 persons ⇒ 3 1/3 days or 10/3 days
- 1 person ⇒ x
Then:
(we cancel the unit "persons")
- x = 10 days
Just a person would need 10 days to complete a job, now, we're gonna divide this value in 2 to obtain the time that need two persons to complete a job:
- Time to complete a job between 2 persons =
- Time to complete a job between 2 persons = 5 days
How two persons need 5 days to complete a job (in this case, the two persons are Janice and Karen), we can make a simple rule of three to obtain the percentage made in 1 day:
- 5 days ⇒ 100% of a job
- 1 day ⇒ x
Then:
(you can use the % if you want, the result is the same)
As you can see, <u><em>Janice and Karen just in a day could do 20% of the job</em></u>.
Answer: The missing length is 120 {option C}
Step-by-step explanation: What we have in the question is a triangle placed on top of another triangle and as shown in the attached diagram we can separate them into triangles BFC and GFH.
A close observation shows that line BC is parallel to line GH. Hence we have two similar triangles, and we can determine their similarity ratios as follows;
BF/FC = GF/FH
Similarly BF/BC = GF/GH
We can also express the following ratio
FC/FH = BC/GH
Therefore to calculate the missing side, which is GF, we can use the ratio
FC/FH = FB/FG
30/100 = 36/FG
By cross multiplication we now have 30 (FG) = 100 (36)
30FG = 3600
Divide both sides of the equation by 30
FG = 120
