Answer: 48 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Ant takes 6 days to consume
of an apple
Using unitary method

100 = x + x/2
3x/2 = 100
x = 200/3
if there was 50% discount:
buying 1 would be $33.33
buying 2 would be $66.67
Here is the solution based on the given situation above.
Given: 450 kg = weight limit of the elevator
750 kg = current weight of the group of passengers
? = number of passengers who weigh 70 kgs that need to get off the elevator
So to get the answer, first we need to deduct 450kg from 750 kgs to get the excess weight. So 750 - 450 is 300kgs. Next, we divide 300 by 70kgs to get the number of passengers that need to get off so 300/70 is 4.3. Therefore, there should be 4 passengers who weigh 70 kilograms that need to get off the elevator.
Answer:
140 ounces of water and 105 ounces of 35% salt solution.
Explanation:
Let
be the ounces of water that need to be added and
be the ounces of 35% solution that need to to be added.
We know that the total of ounces of water and of 35% solution must be 245 ounces:

35% of
is the salt, and since no salt is added with addition of
liters of water, this must be equal to the amount of salt in the final 15% solution:

we solve for
and get:

We put this value into
and solve for
to get:

Thus we have 140 ounces of water and 105 ounces of 35% solution.
R - 10 = 18 - r
2r = 28
r = 14
