Answer: 135 grams of Zinc

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of Zinc to Copper in this scenario is 3:13 and in this jar there is 585 of Copper.

Using direct proportion, the grams of Zinc in the jar is:

3        :           13

x        :           585

Cross -multiplying will give:

1,755 = 13x

x = 1,755/13

x = 135 grams of Zinc

Dima020 [189]
87 / 114 = x / 9918....87 people to 114 = x people to 9918
cross multiply
(114)9x) = (87)(9918)
114x = 862866
x = 862866/114

What is 321.5 Kilometers per hour converted to MPH
inessss [21]
321.5\ kmph\approx\boxed{199.770777\ mph}

By the way, Google has a built in calculator. You can just type in "321.5 kmph in mph" and it will come up with this answer.

You could also use the fact that 1\ km\approx0.621371\ mi,
According to the properties of equality, if you have two equal expressions and you change them in the same way, the results wil also be equal.
So that means we can multiply each side by 321.5 and get our answer above.
