The answer is 2/4 I believe
5 24
- -
8 1
Simplify 24 and 8. (8 goes into 24 six times.)
5 6
- -
1 1
or
5 x 6 = 30
Given:
A space shuttle can travel at 28968 km/h.
To find:
The distance it can cover in 8 hrs.
Solution:
We have,
Speed of space shuttle = 28968 km/h.
So,
Distance covered by the space shuttle in 1 hour = 28968 km/h.
Distance covered by the space shuttle in 8 hour = (28968 × 8) km
= 231744 km
Therefore, the distance it can cover in 8 hrs is 231744 km.
So here is the answer. Initially, Ed's toy cars compared to Pete's toy cars was 5:2. So for every 5 cars that Ed has, Pete has 2. Now that Ed gave 30 cars to Pete. So here it goes. The total number of ratio units is 5+2=7, so each will have an equal number if they both have 3.5 ratio units. That is, if Ed transfers to Pete 1.5 ratio units, their car counts will be equal. Thus 1.5 ratio units = 30 cars, or 1 ratio unit = 20 cars. Therefore, this makes <span> 7*20 cars = 140 cars.
