A car traveling at a certain speed will travel 76 feet per second. How many miles will the car travel in 3.1 hours if it maintai

liubo4ka [24]

Keeping in mind that, there are 5280 feet in 1 mile, and 60 minutes in an hour and 60 seconds in each minute, thus 60*60 seconds in an hour, or 3600 seconds.

$\bf \cfrac{76~\underline{feet}}{\underline{sec}}\cdot \cfrac{mile}{5280~\underline{feet}}\cdot \cfrac{3600~\underline{sec}}{hr}\implies \cfrac{76\cdot 3600~mile}{5280~hr}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{570~mile}{11~hr}\approx 51.\overline{81}\frac{mile}{hr}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{how many miles does it do in 3.1hrs?}\quad \cfrac{570}{11}\cdot 3.1$

I spent 80% of my money and had $12 left. How much money did I have to start ?

xeze [42]

If you spent 80% that means you have 20% left, we'll use B as variable

20% x B = 12
0.20/0.20 x B = 12/0.20
B = 60
