Since there are 8 total, and 4 is the amount to find as a fraction, we simply divide 4 by 8 to get 4/8
Answer:
0.09375 tons
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, it is given that Samuel has 3/4 tons of mulch i.e. 0.75 tons of mulch.
Again it is given that Samuel has to spread equally this amount of mulch in 8 square yards of the plot.
Since the mulch is spread uniformly, then we can say that in each square yard of the plot (0.75/8) = 0.09375 tons of mulch is been spread.
Therefore, 0.09375 tons of mulch will be spread in each square yard. (Answer)
Write and solve an equation of ratios:
x 9
---- = ----
16 x
Cross mult., we get x^2 = (16)(9)
Taking the sqrt of both sides, we get x = plus or minus (4)(3), or
x= plus or minus 12
Since x is measure of distance here, omit the -12 result. x = +12 units
Answer:
21 min
Step-by-step explanation:
V = lwh
V = 60(50)(56) = 168000 cu. cm
8 liters = 8000 cu cm
168000/8000 = 21 min.
