When you say "at the same ratio", you mean that you consume the same amount of gas for the same amount of miles.
We know that everytime you drive 75 miles, you use 3 gallons of gas.
Since 12 gallons of gas is four times 3 gallons of gas, if the ratio remains the same, you can drive four times the distance:
You drive 75 miles, and use 3 gallons.
You drive 75 more miles (so you are at miles) and use 3 more gallons, so you use
gallons.
You drive 75 more miles (so you are at miles) and use 3 more gallons, so you use
gallons.
You drive 75 more miles (so you are at miles) and use 3 more gallons, so you use
gallons, and you're done.
The maximum possible measurement is 1.25 Kg and the minimum possible measurement is 1.15 kg
<u>Solution:</u>
Given mass of an ostrich egg is 1.2 Kg
We have to find the minimum and maximum possible measurements to the nearest tenth of a kilogram
The greatest possible error in measurement nearest tenth of a kilogram, is a half a tenth of a kilogram which is:-
Now, the maximum value will be equal to calculated amount plus the error in measurement of value .i.e.
Now, the minimum value will be equal to calculated amount minus the error in measurement of value .i.e.
Hence, maximum possible measurement is 1.25 Kg
And the minimum possible measurement is 1.15 kg
