Answer:
The actual distance between the cities is 211.67 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The map key indicates that 4.5 cm is equivalent to 75 cm.
Now, to find the actual distance between the cities if the cities are 12.7 cm apart on the map.
Let the actual distance be
.
So, we set a proportion to find the actual distance:
4.5:12.7 = 75:x.
<em>Changing into fractions.</em>

<em>By cross multiplication we get:</em>

<em>Dividing both sides by 4.5 we get:</em>

Therefore, the actual distance between the cities is 211.67 cm.
Answer:
4/10 or 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
probability of each letter:
J = 0/10
U = 2/10
M = 1/10
P = 1/10
Each ream weighs 5 lb . so, reducing 10 lb means removing 2 reams from the 12. so, how do we arrange the 10 reams so that its easy to carry?
i thinks that 3 stacks will not work as it wont be a symmetric arrangement as 1 will be left out. So, 2 stacks of 5 each would be easy to carry. but the stacks should be placed in such a way that the lengths are parallel to each other and not in-line which would increase the length making it comparatively longer. its easier to hold a (2*8.5,11,2*5=17,11,17)compact box.
