Given: £90 is divided among Aahil, James and Merav in the ratio 1:3:5.

To find: How much Merav gets.

Answer:

Let's assume the shares of each to be 'x'.

This implies that 1x + 3x + 5x = 90.

9x = 90

x = 90/9

x = 10

Substituting this value of x in the ratio,

1 × 10 = 10 [Aahil's share]
3 × 10 = 30 [James' share]
5 × 10 = 50 [Merav's share]

Therefore, Merav gets £50.

Hope it helps. :)

Elden [556K]

Answer:

7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the plane was flying at 847 km/hour. So the speed of the plane was 847 kilometers per hour.

It is also given that the distance between Rome and New Delhi is 5,929 kilometers.

We know that the distance is equal to the product of speed and time, so we have,

$d= s\times t$ , where 'd' represents the distance, 's' represents the speed, and 't' represents the time.
