Answer: 44
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5 of the slab are grey implies that 4/5 are yellow.
The ratio of grey to yellow is thus given as :
1/5 : 4/5
which is 1 : 4
Therefore , the ratio of grey to yellow is 1: 4
The total ratio = 1 + 4 = 5
To calculate the number of yellow , we use the formula
number of yellow =
X total number of slabs , that is
number of yellow =
X 55
number of yellow slab = 44
First subtract 325-7= 318 Then you divide 318/6=53
So each bus holds 53 people
The simplest solution is:
2452 = 60q +52r
2452 = 60q + 52(1)
2452 -52 = 60q
2400 = 60q
2400/60 =q
40 = q
r = 1: q = 40
