a leaky faucet is losing water and is filling a 5-gallon bucket every 20 hours. At that rate, how many gallons of water will the
Arisa [49]
You can either scale down so you can get to 48 hours or just multiply from 20 to 48 and I'll explain both ways.
Scaling down:
You can find how many hours it takes to get to 1 gallon in the bucket by dividing
20÷5=4; It takes 4 hours to fill it up to one gallon.
You can now divide 48 by 4 to see how many gallons it'll take up to 48 hours.
48÷4=12
Quicker:
Divide 48 by 20;
48÷20=2.4
Now multiply since it filled it up to 5 gallons.
2.4×5=12
It'll fill 12 gallons in 48 hours.

9. A box of cereal is packaged and sold at a local
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

288 Cubic Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the cereal takes up 80% of the total volume of the box, you would take 80% of the total volume.

First, do Base x Width x Height for the volume of the box.

10 inches x 3 inches x 1 foot      (1 foot is 12 inches)

10 x 3 x 12 = 360

Now, take 80% of 360 cubic inches.

80% is 0.8 times a number

0.8 x 360 = 288

288 Cubic Inches
