A investor has T dollars to invest; after they invest $1,000, how much money remains?
After the investor invests $1,000, they have T - $1,000 remaining.
A rectangular field is 900 yards by 240 yards. What is the greatest number of rectangular lots 120 yards by 60 yards that it can be divided into?
To find the greatest number of rectangular lots that can be divided into the field, we need to determine how many times the dimensions of the field can be divided evenly by the dimensions of the lots.
The field has a length of 900 yards and the lots have a length of 120 yards. When we divide the length of the field by the length of the lots, we get 900/120 = 7.5. However, we cannot have a fraction of lots, so we have to round down to the nearest whole number.
Therefore, the field can be divided into a maximum of 7 rectangular lots along its length.
Similarly, the field has a width of 240 yards and the lots have a width of 60 yards. When we divide the width of the field by the width of the lots, we get 240/60 = 4.
Therefore, the field can be divided into a maximum of 4 rectangular lots along its width.
To find the total number of lots, we multiply the number of lots along the length (7) by the number of lots along the width (4):
7 * 4 = 28
Therefore, the greatest number of rectangular lots that the field can be divided into is 28.
To find out how much money remains after investing $1,000, you need to subtract $1,000 from the initial amount of T dollars.
Remaining money = T - $1,000
