Answer:
78 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
If the raio is 2:3 that means there are 5 equal parts
56/2 28
3 x 28 = 78
I think the answer will be 2.5
A complete load of concrete = 8 parts gravel + 7 parts water + 5 parts cement.
Total number of parts in every load = 8 + 7 + 5 = 20 parts
If total load = 220 kg, then 20 parts = 220 kg
Divide each side by 20 : 1 part = 11 kg
gravel = 8 parts = 8 x 11 kg = <em>88 kg</em>
water = 7 parts = 7 x 11 kg = <em>77 kg</em>
cement = 5 parts = 5 x 11 kg = <em>55 kg</em>
<u>Check:</u> 88 + 77 + 55 = 220 yay !
Answer:
1200
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 convert pounds to ounces
1 pound = 16 ounces
So to convert pounds to ounces we multiply by 16
1500 * 16 = 24000
So there are 24000 ounces in 1500 pounds
Step 2 Find how many 20 ounce containers he can fill.
To find out how many 20 ounce containers he can fill we divide the total amount of ounces of butter that he has by 20
So answer = 24000/20
24000 / 20 = 1200
Therefore he can fill 1200 20 - ounce containers
ANSWER:
- x – 3y = 2 ...(1)
- 2x – 6y = 6 ...(2)
On solving eq(1), we get
Plug the value of x in eq(2)
- 2x – 6(x - 2/3) = 6
- 2x – 2(x – 2) = 6
- 2x – 2x + 4 = 6
- 0 = 6 – 4
- 0 ≠ 2
So, given system of equations is not correct.
