To solve this problem, you must set it up like this : 6/x = 15/100
Now, cross-multiply. 15x = 600
Divide by 15 on each side.
x=40.
6 is 15% of 40.
Hope this helps :)
37.06 to yards is
4.1177 Square yards
x/110 = (320-x)/90
<span> Cross multiply</span>
90x = 35200-110x
200x=35200
X = 35200/200 = 176 (distance traveled by train going 110 mph
176/110 = 1.6 hours = 1 hour and 36 minutes
Check: 110*1.6 = 176, 90*1.6 = 144
176+144 = 320
it will take 1.6 hours ( 1 hour 36 minutes) for the trains to meet
Answer:
perimeter = 40
area = 46(unit)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter - all sides added together
- Find unknown sides (8-3 = 5, 12-2 = 10)
- Add all sides together (8+2+5+10+3+12 = 40)
Area - Length multiplied by width
- Divide shape into two rectangles (#1 is 2x5 and #2 is 3x12)
- Find individual area (rectangle #1: 2*5 = 10 / rectangle #2: 3*12 = 36)
- Add areas together (10+36 = 46)
- Finish with unit squared (46___^2)
