Answer:
The number of batches Ben can make with 5/6 cup of green chilies is batches of salsa.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question,
Ben needs 1/3 cups of chilies for a batch of salsa.
To determine how many batches of salsa he can make with 5/6 cup of green chilies,
Let the number of batches Ben can make with 5/6 cup of green chilies be x.
Now,
If 1/3 cups of green chilies is needed for 1 batch,
Then, 5/6 cups of green chilies will make x batches
1/3 × x = 5/6 × 1
x = 5/6 ÷ 1/3
x =
x =
x =
x =
x =
Hence, the number of batches Ben can make with 5/6 cup of green chilies is batches of salsa.
Answer:
Option B - 9 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Three machines operating independently, simultaneously, and at the same constant rate can fill a certain production order in 36 hours. If one additional machine were used under the same operating conditions.
To find : In how many fewer hours of simultaneous operation could the production order be filled?
Solution :
Let the numbers of hours taken including additional machine i.e. 4 machines be 'x' hours.
So, 3 machines take 36 hours
and 4 machines take x hours.
Then,
i.e. 4 machines spend 27 hours to do work.
Number of fewer hours of simultaneous operation could the production order be filled is given by,
hours
Therefore, the work could be done in 9 hours less.
So, the correct answer is B.
