<h3>Hey Buddy,</h3>

<h3>Answer :-</h3>

Answer is 72 .

<h3><u>Explanation :-</u></h3>

\frac{6}{5}  \: of \: what \: number \: is \: 60 \:

You probably , Know that the number above the fraction line is called the numerator and the number below it is called the denominator. To work out the fraction of any number, we first need to convert that whole number into a fraction as well .

• Any number can be converted to fraction if you use 1 as the denominator:

\frac{60}{1}

• So now that we've converted 60 into a fraction, to work out the answer, we put the fraction 6/5 side by side with our new fraction, 60/1 so that we can multiply those two fractions.

• convert the whole number to a fraction and then multiply the numerators and denominators.

\frac{6 \times 60}{5 \times 1}  =  \frac{360}{5}

• Our new fraction can actually be simplified down further. To do that, we need to find the greatest common factor of both numbers.

• You can use our handy GCF calculator to work this out yourself if you want to. We already did that , And the GCF of 360 and 5 is 5.

• We can now divide both the new numerator and the denominator by 5 to simplify this fraction down to its lowest terms.

\frac{360}{5}  = 72

\frac{5}{5}  = 1

• When we put that together, we can see that our complete answer is :-

\frac{72}{1}

<h3> Hence ,the complete and simplified answer to the question what is 6/5 of 60 is :- 72 .</h3>

<h3>Hope this helps you...!</h3>

<h3>I hope you can understand !! </h3>

Which fraction has a terminating decimal as its decimal expansion?
alex41 [277]
'One third' as a decimal is 1 ÷ 3 = 0.333333..... ⇒ The decimal is recurring

'One fifth' as decimal is 1 ÷ 5 = 0.2 ⇒ The decimal terminates at the tenth value

'One seventh'  as decimal 1 ÷ 7 = 0.142857142857.... ⇒ The decimal is recurring for every digit between 1 and 7

'One ninth' as decimal 1 ÷ 9 = 0.111111.... ⇒ The decimal is recurring

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

x + 25 < 75; x < 50

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality says the sum of x and 25 (written as x + 25) is less than (<) 75.

The inequality is written as: x + 25 < 75

My work for solving the inequality is in the picture.

A plant produces 500 units/hour of an item with dimensions of 4” x 6” x 2”. The manager wants to store two weeks of supply in co
mart [117]

Answer:

  564 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

To account for the extra space between units, we can add 2" to every unit dimension and every box dimension to figure the number of units per box.

Doing that, we find the storage box dimensions (for calculating contents) to be ...

  3 ft 2 in × 4 ft 2 in × 2 ft 2 in = 38 in × 50 in × 26 in

and the unit dimensions to be ...

  (4+2)" = 6" × (6+2)" = 8" × (2+2)" = 4"

A spreadsheet can help with the arithmetic to figure how many units will fit in the box in the different ways they can be arranged. (See attached)

When we say the "packing" is "462", we mean the 4" (first) dimension of the unit is aligned with the 3' (first) dimension of the storage box; the 6" (second) dimension of the unit is aligned with the 4' (second) dimension of the storage box; and the 2" (third) dimension of the unit is aligned with the 2' (third) dimension of the storage box. The "packing" numbers identify the unit dimensions, and their order identifies the corresponding dimension of the storage box.

We can see that three of the four allowed packings result in 216 units being stored in a storage box.

If storage boxes are stacked 4 deep in a 9' space, the 2' dimension must be the vertical dimension, and the floor area of each stack of 4 boxes is 3' × 4' = 12 ft². There are 216×4 = 864 units stored in each 12 ft² area.

If we assume that 2 weeks of production are 80 hours of production, then we need to store 80×500 = 40,000 units. At 864 units per 12 ft² of floor space, we need ceiling(40,000/864) = 47 spaces on the floor for storage boxes. That is ...

  47 × 12 ft² = 564 ft²

of warehouse floor space required for storage.

_____

The second attachment shows the top view and side view of units packed in a storage box.
