Answer: 104 men work for the company
Step-by-step explanation:
man = 4 x
woman = 7--------- you don't need these so i cross it out.
------------------------
total = 11 286
so you get 1144 - 11x
then divide 1144 by 11 and you get x = 104
1 m = 100 cm, so 5 m = 500 cm plus the 32 cm, so she has a rope that is 532 cm long.
532 - 249 = 283 cm
So the other piece of rope is 283 cm long.
Answer:
b) 50
Step-by-step explanation:
you can multiply all of the answers by .7 (70% converted into a decimal) to see which one matches 35 miles.
24.5(.7) = 17.15 INCORRECT
50(.7) = 35 CORRECT
59.5(.7) = 41.65 INCORRECT
200(.7) = 140 INCORRECT
N = d - 5
2n/(d + 16) = n/d - 1/3 n/d
2n/(d + 16) = 2/3 n/d Divide by 2n
1 / (d + 16) = 1/3 d
Here's the tricky part.
d + 16 = 3d the two denominators are equal. the numerators are both 1.
16 = 2d
d = 8
so the numerator is d - 5
n = 8 - 5
n = 3
Let's see if it checks out.
n = 3
d = 8
2*3 = 6
8 + 16 = 24
New fraction 6/24 = 1/4
(3/8 - 1/3 ) = 1/8
3/8 - 1/8 = 1/4 so it checks with the original conditions put on it.
To find the answer, you must first turn the fractions into decimals. 4 ÷ 5 = 0.8 ; 1 ÷ 2 = 0.5 ; 1 ÷ 10 = 0.1. Then you must subtract 0.5 from 0.8. Then add 0.1 to 0.3 .
