In this question weight of a flea and an ant is given, but their units are different. So comparing and finding out the weight of flea and ant would be difficult. First thing that needs to be done is to bring the units of both the flea and the ant under same unit.
Weight of flea = 8 decigrams
Weight of ant = 3 milligrams.
Now let us convert the weight of the flea from decigrams to milligrams.
We already know that
1 decigram = 100 milligram
Then
8 decigrams = 100 * 8 milligrams
= 800 milligrams
Then
The weight by which the flea is greater than the ant = (800 - 3) milligrams
= 797 milligrams.
So the flea weighs 797 milligrams more than the ant.
Answer:
9 : 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum the parts of the ratio, 3 + 8 = 11 parts
Divide 33 by 11 to find the value of one part of the ratio
33 ÷ 11 = 3 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus
3 parts = 3 × 3 = 9
8 parts = 8 × 3 = 24
Answer:
SAS
Step-by-step explanation:
students going on trip: 26+32 = 58
58 students * 1 van/10 students = 5.8 vans
round up because we cannot take part of a van
6 vans
5 vans will have 10 students and 1 will have 8 students OR
4 vans will have 10 students and 2 will have 9 students
