Answer:

Hence it will take 35hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time it took to dig hole be x

Ley the number of holes be n

Using the relationship x = kn (direct relationship)

if it takes 3 men 5 hours to dig 12 holes, hence;

when x = 5, n = 12

k = x/n

k = 5/12

To get how many hours it take for 3 men to dig 84 holes, then;

when n = 84, x = ?

x = 5/12 * 84

x = 5 * 7

x = 35hours

Hence it will take 35hours

Me zachary brings 264 ounces of water to basketball practice for the players to drink . Ifmr zachary didvides the water equally
Mila [183]

Answer:

3 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Me Zachary brings 264 ounces of water to basketball practice for the players to drink. Mr Zachary divides the water equally among the 9 players. We are asked to find the amount of water that is left over.

To find the amount of water that is left over, we will take out the largest multiple of 9 from 264.

Let us divide 264 by 9.

   9) 264(29

    <u>   18</u>

         84

<u>          81</u>

            3

We can see that remainder in 3, therefore, 3 ounces of water will be left over.

Write this ratio 1:3.5 in the form p:q where p and q are whole numbers
Orlov [11]

We have to express the ratio 1 : 3.5 in the form p:q where p and q are whole numbers.

Consider the ratio of 1 and 3.5,

1 : 3.5 = \frac{1}{3.5}

= \frac{10}{35}

Reducing the above fraction to its lowest form.

So, we get \frac{10}{35}=\frac{2}{7}

Therefore, the ratio 1 : 3.5 is expressed as \frac{2}{7}

where 2 and 7 are the whole numbers.
