Answer: 1⁵/₈ pints
Step-by-step explanation:
First can contained 3¹/₄ pints and second can contained 6¹/₂.
To make them equal, first find the different;
= 6¹/₂ - 3¹/₄
= 6.5 - 3.25
= 3.25
Divide this difference by 2;
= 3.25/2
= 1.625
= 1⁶²⁵/₁₀₀₀
= 1⁵/₈ pints
If Carson pours 1⁵/₈ pints from the second Can, it would increase the first can to 4⁷/₈ pints whilst reducing the second can to 4⁷/₈ pints as well.
This is the concept of trigonometry, we are required to calculate the number of floors the building has given the information above;
# floors=[height of the building]/[height of each floor]
height of each floor=17 ft
let the height of the building be,h.
h is given by;
tan theta=opposite/adjacent
theta=80
opposite=h
adjacent=75 ft
thus
tan 80=h/75
h=75 tan 80
h=425.35 ft
thus the number of floors will be:
425.35/17
=25.020≈25 floors
Answer:
310 / 1000 = 0.31 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
When dividing by a number that is 1 less 0 than how many digits the number has, we can move the decimal point the number of times zero is repeated at the end of the number.
1000 has 3 zeroes, so we move the decimal point 3 moves to the left.
So, we do this:
After 0 moves: 310
After 1 move: 31.0
After 2 moves: 3.10
After 3 moves = 0.310
0.310 is the same as 0.31
Therefore, 0.31 pounds of flour are in each loaf.
