Answer:
24 and 48
Today, the son is 24 years old, and the father is 48 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 10) + (2x - 10) = 52
3x + 20 = 52
3x = 72
x = 24
The father is 2 times his son's age.
2x
= 2(24)
= 48
So, the son is 24 and the father is 48.
10 years ago, son was 14 and father was 38, if added, this adds up to 52, so we know our calculations are correct.
Answer:
252 bags of maize
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are told that a farmer harvested maize
In the year 2012 = 144 bags of maize
In the year 2013(following year) the harvest decreased in the ratio 3:4
This means
3:4 = 2013: 2012.
Where number of bags harvested in 2013 = unknown = x
3/4 = x/ 144
Cross multiply 4x = 3 × 144
x = 3 × 144/ 4
× = 108
This means 108 bags of maize was harvested in 2013
The total number of bags harvested is = 108 + 144
= 252 bags of maize.
875 × .64= 560
answer: 560 employees eat lunch at the cafeteria on Wednesday.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a. The plane's speed in mph is 560
b. At this rate, the plane can travel 5,600 miles in 10 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the planes speed in mph, some simple arithmetic must be done and you should divide 3,360 by 6. Now that you have determined that 3,360/6 equals 560, you know that in order to figure out how many miles the plane can travel in 10 hours, all you must do is multiply 560 by 10 which equals 5,600.
