Answer:
First blank- 32000 ounces
Second blank- 2000 pounds
Yes the bridge can hold 1 ton.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the scale of the model to the real bridge = 1:4
The test model shows the model can take 8000 ounces
The real bridge will therefore take 8000 x 4 = 32000 ounces
16 ounces = 1 pound
32000 ounces = x pounds
==> = 32000/16 = 2000 pounds
2000 pounds = 1 ton
therefore the bridge holds 1 ton
Answer:
Hi, this question is a little unclear. If you want to know what percentage he saved, it would be 30%, and to convert that percentage into a decimal would be a decimal of 0.30
step-by-step explanation: the increase = 204 - 120
increase = 84
percent increase = 84/120
percent increase = 70% so of course the percentage is 70% ( I hope this helps you )
Remark
The thing you must not do is write 7.182 as your answer. That is the exact answer found using a calculator.
What to do.
What you should do is multiply two rounded numbers together.
7.6 rounded is 8 roughly
0.945 is almost 1.
Your answer is 8*1 = 8 roughly. This skill is very handy when you are writing a test and you want to see if you've done the question correctly. It is easy to misplace a decimal or put in incorrect digits and this is a quick check on things like that.
