Answer:
25 wooden boards
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Width of wooden board = 6 inches
Number of boards required to build a fence of 150 inches long if there are no gaps :
The lenght of fence / width of wooden board
= 150 inches / 6 inches
= 25 wooden boards
The best way to approach this problem is to find out how much fell in week. As you know what two weeks is, you simply have to halve this, giving you that one week is 5 inches of rain. One you have this, you can multiply this by 4 (as this will give you 4 weeks, or 28 days), and this gives you 20 inches in 28 days. You should then find the odd three days. If you divide 5 by 7, this will give you the rain fall in one day. 5/7= 0.8 inches per day. You then have top multiply this by 3 (as you've got three odd days), and this gives you 2.4. You then have to add together 2.4 and 20, giving you 22.4
Therefore, if the rain continued to fall at the same rate for 31 days, it would receive 22.4 inches of rain.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
q = -
p
Step-by-step explanation:
less than p =
p
Thus
p + q =
p ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )
3p + 3q = 2p ( subtract 3p from both sides )
3q = - p ( divide both sides by 3 )
q = -
p

Answer:
a = 16/3 or 5 1/3 or 5.33...
Step-by-step explanation:
to find a you must first make all of the denominators the same
you must find 4 6 and 2s CGF
and that is 12
so multiply a/4 by 3/3 and get 3a/12
then multiply 5/6 by 2/2 and get 10/12
and lastly multiply 1/2 by 6/6 and get 6/12
at this point you can set the equation up like this
3a/12 - 10/12 = 6/12
but then you can multiply everything by 12
3a - 10 = 6
and then solve
add 10 to both sides
3a = 16
then divide 3 on each side
a = 16/3 or 5 1/3 or 5.33...
