Answer: 5 bags of sand

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

There are 8 elementary schools

3 Tons of sand is needed

It is contained in a 50- Pound bag

1 ton is equivalent to 2000 Pound

No of 50- Pound bag required is

\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{2000}{50}\\\\\Rightarrow n=40

These 40 bags will be required in 8 schools. So, each school requires

\Rightarrow \dfrac{40}{8}=5\ \text{bag}

Answer:

The number of bags required for each school is 16.53

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of schools = 8

Total sand required = 3 tons

mass of each bag = 50 pounds

Sand required for each school = 3 ton/ 8 = 3000 / 8 kg = 375 kg

1 pound = 0.454 kg

1 kg = 2.205 pounds

So, 375 kg = 826.7 pounds

So, the number of bags required for each school =  826.7/50 = 16.53 bags

Helen [10]

Step 1.

Calculate measure of angle α:

47^o-38^o=9^o

Step 2.

Calculate what fraction of the angle 360° ​​is the angle α:

\dfrac{9^o}{360^o}=\dfrac{1}{40}

Step 3.

Calculate the circumference of the Earth (circle):

C=2\pi r\to C=2\pi\cdot4000=8000\pi\ mi

Step 4.

The length of arc is equal 1/40 of the circumference:

\dfrac{1}{40}C=\dfrac{1}{40}\cdot8000\pi=200\pi\ mi

\pi\approx3.14\to\dfrac{1}{40}C\approx200\cdot3.14=628\ mi
