Answer:

It will take him 75 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rule of three / cross-multiplication:

3 newspapers require 5 min

45 newspapers require x min

x = (45 / 3) * 5

x = 15 * 5

x = 75 min

Answer:

75 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

3 newspapers = 5 minutes

45 newspapers = x minutes

45/3 = 15

3 x 15= 45 newspapers

5 x 15 = 75 minutes

Another way:

x= minutes

45/3= x/5

15=x/5

75=x

The ratio of Victors money to Susies money is 4:7 at first. After Victor spent half of his money and Susie spent $60, Susie had
valkas [14]

Answer:

Victor originally had $80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Victor have $4x

Let Susie have $7x

Since Victor spent half his money, he now has $2x

Susie spent $60 and thus now has $(7x - 60)

The final ratio of Victor's money to Susie's money is therefore  2x : $(7x - 60). This is given 1:2. Now we just need to solve the proportion by cross-multiplying

2x : (7x - 60) = 1:2

1 × (7x - 60) = 2 × 2x

7x - 60 = 4x

3x = 60

x = 20

Therefore Victor originally had $4x = $80.

Alice has 1/5 as many miniature cars as Sylvester has Sylvester has 35 miniature cars how many miniature cars does alic have?
const2013 [10]
The answer is 7. Since Alice has 1/5 as many cars as Sylvester. You multiply 1/5 by how many cars Sylvester has. Sylvester has 35 cars, so you would do 35 times 1/5 or 35 divided by 5 (multiply by 1/5 and divided by 5 are the same thing) and you would get your answer of 7.
