There are some small cubes and some large cubes in a bag.
The cubes are red or the cubes are yellow.
The ratio of the number of small cubes to the number of large cubes is 4:9
The ratio of the number of red cubes to the number of yellow cubes is 3:5
a) What is the least possible number of cubes in the bag?
b) work out the least number of large yellow cubes in the bag.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

What a wonderful problem. I've never seen one quite like it.

Red to Yellow

The Red to Yellow ratio is given as 3:5

The total number of Red and yellow is something to 8. You get that just by adding the ratio. Let's check it out.

The reds are 3 to 8 and the yellows are 5 to 8.

Does that make sense? 3/8 + 5/8 = 8/8. All the cubes are accounted for.

Small to Large

The given ratio is 4:9

The smalls are 3/13 and the large are 9/13

3/13 + 9/13 equal 13/13 and all the cubes are accounted for.

What is the least possible number that will accomplish this?

8 * 13 is the very least number that will accomplish this. How come?

Because you have two conditions that must be met -- size and color. No other number will work.  Any other number will leave a remainder when you put color and size together. So the smallest number you can use is 104,

Last question: Least Number of Large Yellows

The color yellow is 5/8

The size is Large 9/13

So the calculation is

5/8 * 9 / 13 * 104

= 5 * 9

= 45

Notice that the 8 and 13 cancel out. You are left with the number of Yellows and Large =45

Note

I'll leave the other 3 combinations to you. They should add up to 104.

3/8 * 9/13 * 104 = 27

5/8 * 4/13 * 104 = 20

3/8 * 4/13 * 104 = 12

Answers

Answer:

You can get 25 packs of 20 and 3 packs of 9 and 1   4 piece.

OR

59 packs of 9 pieces

PART 2-

No because you can still get a 9 piece and 20 piece.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

24 packs of 20=480

3 packs of 9=27

2 packs of 6=12

3 packs of 4=12

480+27+12+12=531

22 packs of 20=440

8 packs of 9=81

1 pack of 6=6

1 pack of 4=4

440+81+6+4=531

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in this circle.
What is the measure of angle A?
Enter your answer in the box

Answers

Answer:

m∠A = 116°

Step-by-step explanation:

For better understanding of the solution, see the attached figure of the problem :

The quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in a circle, Thus the quadrilateral ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.

Also, Sum of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is supplementary.

Now, m∠A = (x - 36)°, m∠B = 28° and m∠D = x°

But, since the sum of opposite angles is 180°

⇒ 28° + x° = 180°

⇒ x = 180 - 28

⇒ x = 152

So, m∠A = (x - 36)°

⇒ m∠A = (152 - 36)°

⇒ m∠A = 116°

In January Todd was able to lift 127 1/2 lb. In February he could lift 135 lb, and in March he could lift 142 1/2 lb. If he continues at this rate what will Todd be able to lift in July?

Answers

Answer:

172 1/2 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the rate of change per month = lifts lifted in march - lift lifted in February

142 1/2 - 135 = 7 1/2

Determine the number of months from march to July = 4

increase in weight he would be able to carry in 4 months = 7.5 x 4 = 30 lb

weight he would be able to carry in april = 30 + 142 1/2 = 172 1/2
