Answer:

Sand in small bag = 2x = 2(7.5) = 15 kg

Sand in medium bag = 3x = 3(7.5) = 22.5 kg

Sand in a large bag = 7x = 7(7.5) = 52.5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Total weight = 90 kg

As 90 kg has been distributed in 3 bags in the ratio 2:3:7

Let the small bag contains = 2x

Let the medium bag contains = 3x

Let the big bag contains = 7x

so the equation becomes

2x+3x+7x = 90

12x = 90

x = 90/12

x = 7.5

Thus,

Sand in small bag = 2x = 2(7.5) = 15 kg

Sand in medium bag = 3x = 3(7.5) = 22.5 kg

Sand in a large bag = 7x = 7(7.5) = 52.5 kg

<u>SOLUTION CHECK</u>

15+22.5+52.5=90 kg

What is the median of 82, 4, 94, 4, 60, 91<br> And what is the mode and range

Dimas [21]

Answer:

The median is 55.833

The range is 90

The mode is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find median you

1. Arrange your numbers in numerical order.

2. Count how many numbers you have.

3. If you have an odd number, divide by 2 and round up to get the position of the median number.

4.If you have an even number, divide by 2. Go to the number in that position and average it with the number in the next higher position to get the median.

To find mode you put the numbers in order from least to greatest and count how many times each number occurs. The number that occurs the most is the mode. To find range you first put all the numbers in order. Then subtract (take away) the lowest number from the highest. The answer gives you the range of the list.
