Answer:
The number of red pens is 20.
The number of blue pens is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that, the ratio of number of red pens to the number of blue pens is 5 : 1.
∴ Let us assume that the number of red pens be 5<em>x</em> and number of blue pens be <em>x</em>.
Total number of pens in the desk drawer = 24
Now, according to question :
Number of red pens + Number of blue pens = 24
⇒5<em>x</em> + <em>x</em> = 24
⇒6<em>x</em> = 24
⇒
So, number of red pens in the drawer = 5<em>x</em> = 5 × 4 = 20
Number of blue pens in the drawer = <em>x</em> = 4
Complete question :
Sam knows that his MP3 player has 40% of its battery life left and that the battery
charges by an additional 12 percentage points every 15 minutes. What percent of
the mp3's battery will be charged when Sam and his family leave? If mp3 was plugged in an hour before his family plan to leave.
Answer:
88%
Step-by-step explanation:
Time before leaving = 1hour
Current percentage = 40%
Charge rate = 12% every 15 minutes
Therefore,
Charge rate per minute :
12% / 15 = 0.8% per minute
Charge recieved after one hour (60 minutes) :
0.8% * 60
= 48%
Therefore, total charge after just before leaving is:
Current percentage + percentage received
40% + 48%
= 88%
To solve this problem, you have to determine the value of
the number 3 in both numbers:
6,300 – the number 3 is in the hundreds place so its value
is 300
530 – the number 3 is in the tens place so its value is 30
To answer the question, the value of 3 in 6,300 is 10 times
the value of 3 in 530.
