The best way to do this is to set up a proportion
2 5
--- = ----
5 x
then cross multiply and divide
5 times 5=25/2=12.5
he would move 12.5 feet in 5 hours
I hope I've helped!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
24 = x% * 32
24= x/100 * 32
Multiply 100 on both sides.
2400 = x * 32
32x = 2400
Divide 32 on both sides.
x = 2400/32
x = 75
75 percent<span> of 32 is 24</span>
10
Step-by-step explanation:
you can see it two ways 5×2 or 2×5 better to see it 5×2 cause it's simple 5 then 10 you just add more onto what's the number
Think of it this way: x multiplied by a number that is two more than x is y.
So, look at the factors. 3 and 8 wouldn't work, because 8 is 5 longer than 3. 1 and 24 wouldn't work, because 24 is 23 more than 1. 12 and 2 is also not going to work; 12 is 10 more than 2. What you have left is 4 and 6. 6 is 2 more than 4, and they both multiply to get 24.
So, the correct answer is 6 feet long and 4 feet wide.
