You can square the whole problem to cancel out the square root. Might make things easier.
4. First find how much sauce is used for 1 person:
2 ÷ 7 = 0.285714285714286
0.285714285714286cups of sauce will make spaghetti for one person.
0.285714285714286 • 210 = 60
60 cups of sauce for 210 people.
5. Found out how much he read in one minute:
40 ÷ 50 = 0.8
0.8 • 80 = 64
In 80 minutes, she will read 64 pages.
6. Found out how much he earns after one month:
9 ÷ 6 = 1.5
1.5 • 12 = 18
18 • 2 = 36
After two years, he will have 36 days of vacationing time
For a parallelogram, the area is calculated by the equation,
A = bh
where A is area, b is base, and h is height. From this equation, we can solve for the base of the banner by dividing the area by the height.
base of the banner = 127.5 cm² / 4.25 cm
base of the banner = 30 cm
Thus, the measure of the base of the banner is equal to 30 cm.
In order to find the unit rate
in ft / sec of 300 yards / min.
We first have to elicit the conversion
values for each unit of measurement, this will allows us identify how much will
we multiply in order to get the goaled value.
Conversion values:
<span><span>1.
</span>1 yard = 3
feet</span>
<span><span>2.
</span>1 minute =
60 seconds</span>
Solution:
<span><span>
1.
</span>300 yards x
3 feet/1 yard = 900 feet</span>
<span><span>2.
</span>1 minute x
60 seconds / 1 minute = 60 seconds</span>
Thus, 900ft/60sec
