Trains depart after every 4 minutes.
Total time train takes to complete a circuit= 24 minutes
Evan sets off at 8:30 am, so  he will be back at 8:54 am.
So time of trains coming in opposite direction:
8: 34 am
8:38 am
8:42 am
8:46 am
and 8:50 am
5 trains coming in opposite directions.
Now the trains started at 8:06 am from the stations are:
8:06 am
8:10 am
8:14 am
8:18 am
8:22 am
and 8:26 am.
So there are 6 trains started the circuit at 8:06 am.

Now total number of trains=6+5=11 trains

Answer: 11 trains will pass on complete circuit.

A fruit punch recipe requires 2 quarts pf orange juice to be mixed for every 5 quarts of apple juice. Max has 9 quarts of orange
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

22.5 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us find the ratio of orange juice to apple juice. The punch requires 2 quarts of orange juice mixed with 5 quarts of apple juice.

The ratio of orange juice to apple juice is therefore:

2 : 5 or 2/5

Max has 9 quarts of orange juice. By comparing with the ratio, this implies that:

2 / 5 = 9 / x

x = (9 * 5) / 2 = 22.5 quarts

He will need 22.5 quarts of apple juice.
