You can solve it like this
2=milk (a); 1=milk (b)
9=tea (a); x= tea (b)
2:9=1:x (then multiply means and the extremes)
(means are 9 and 1; extremes are 2 and x)
9=2x
9/2= x
4.5 or 4 1/2=x
Therefore, using 1 litre of milk, we can have 4 1/2 tea.
Answer:50%
Step-by-step explanation: The correct way to calculate what percentage more attended the play is to first subtract the expected number from the actual number. 15 - 10 = 5 more attended than was expected. Next, you need to divide the 5 additional people by the 10 that were originally expected. 5 divided by 10 = 50%
Answer:
= 2 4/15 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed = 3 2/5 km/hour
The units are not the same. The speeds is in hours and the time is in minutes
Lets convert minutes to hours. 60 minutes = 1 hour
40 minutes * 1 hour/ 60 minutes = 40/60 hours = 2/3 hour
Distance = speed * time
= 3 2/5 * 2/3
Change the mixed number to an improper fraction
3 2/5 = (5*3+2)/5 = 17/5
= 17/5 * 2/3
= 34/ 15 km
Change this back to a mixed number
15 goes into 34 2 times (15*2 = 30) with 4 left over
= 2 4/15 km
