On a photograph, an ant is enlarged at a scale 25:1. In the photo, the ant's leg is 15 cm. What is the actual length of the ant's leg?
To find the actual length of the ant's leg, we need to find how many times bigger the ant's leg is compared to its size in the photograph.
Since the ant is enlarged at a scale of 25:1, 1 unit on the photograph is equal to 25 units in reality.
Therefore, to find the actual length of the ant's leg, we need to multiply the length of the leg in the photograph by the scale factor (25).
Actual length of the ant's leg = 15 cm * 25 = <<15*25=375>>375 cm
So, the actual length of the ant's leg is 375 cm.
No
I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct it.
If the ant's leg is 15 cm in the photograph and the scale is 25:1, we need to divide the leg's length in the photo by the scale factor to find the actual length.
Actual length of the ant's leg = 15 cm / 25 = 0.6 cm
Therefore, the actual length of the ant's leg is 0.6 cm.
What is J's speed if he ran 12 miles in h hours? He was running at the same speed the entire time. Please express using algebra.
To find J's speed, we can use the formula:
Speed = Distance / Time
J ran a distance of 12 miles in h hours.
Therefore, J's speed can be expressed as:
Speed = 12 miles / h hours
Thus, J's speed is 12/h miles per hour.
How many miles can M run in h hours at a speed of 6 miles per hour? Please express using algebra.
To find the distance M can run in h hours at a speed of 6 miles per hour, we can use the formula:
Distance = Speed * Time
M can run at a speed of 6 miles per hour for h hours.
Therefore, the distance M can run can be expressed as:
Distance = 6 miles/hour * h hours
Thus, the distance M can run is 6h miles.
L's favorite juice consists of pear, pineapple, and plum juice in the ratio 5:2:3. How many liters of each is needed to make 25 liters of the juice?
To determine how many liters of each juice is needed to make 25 liters of the juice, we need to divide 25 liters according to the given ratio of pear, pineapple, and plum juice, which is 5:2:3.
First, let's calculate the proportion of each type of juice:
Pear juice: 5/10 * 25 = 12.5 liters
Pineapple juice: 2/10 * 25 = 5 liters
Plum juice: 3/10 * 25 = 7.5 liters
Therefore, to make 25 liters of the juice, we will need 12.5 liters of pear juice, 5 liters of pineapple juice, and 7.5 liters of plum juice.
