P = 950/ 0.03 · 5
P = 6,333.333
Answer:
14 : 21
Step-by-step explanation:
---> 2:3 ----> 2+3=5
---> Stick's length = 35 inches
<u />
<u>For the first portion</u>
2/5 x 35
2/1 x 7
= 14 inches
<u>For the second portion</u>
3/5 x 35
3/1 x 7
= 21 inches
To confirm: 14 + 21 = 35 inches
14 : 21
Divide both by 7
2 : 3
255 litres for 340 km
for 1 km = 255/340 litres
for 100 km = 255/340 * 100 = 75 litres
