Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

If 75% is 180, we need to find the remaining 25%.

Obviously, 25 is 1/3 of 75 (and "of" is another word for times) meaning that to find 25%, multiply 75% by 1/3.

Since 75% = 180, we do:

180 x 1/3

Now add these two values together to get:

180 + 60 = 240

<u>The answer is 240</u>

Answer:

-37.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume that "one full day" is 24 hours, then 15 hours represents the fraction 15/24 of a day. Since the drilling rate was constant, and was presumed to start from a height of 0, the height after 15 hours is that fraction of the day's work:

... (15/24)×(-60 m) = -37.5 m
