Powered by AIThe cost per meter is 1575 ÷ 25 = Rs. 63.84/meter. For Rs. 2016: meters = 2016 ÷ 63.84 = 31.6 meters. One could buy approximately 31 meters, considering partial meters may not be purchasable.
To determine how far the truck travels in 25 minutes, first find its speed: 168 km in 5 hours means 168 ÷ 5 = 33.6 km/hr. Then convert 25 minutes to hours: 25/60 = 0.4167 hours. The distance covered in 25 minutes is 33.6 × 0.4167 = 14 km (approximately).
At 45 km/hr for 5 hours, the car covers 45 × 5 = 225 km. For 40 minutes: convert to hours, 40/60 = 0.6667 hours. Distance = 45 × 0.6667 ≈ 30 km. The car covers 225 km in 5 hours and 30 km in 40 minutes.
With fewer people, the time required increases. The relationship is inversely proportional to the number of people. Initially, 4 people took 3 days, so 4x = 12 person-days are needed. With 3 people available, time = 12 ÷ 3 = 4 days. Thus, the 3 people require 4 days to build the room.
The total school hours remain constant. The original schedule: 8 periods × 45 minutes = 360 minutes. With 9 periods: new period duration = 360 ÷ 9 = 40 minutes. Each new period will be 40 minutes long.
Shreya's original journey is 12 km/hr for 20 minutes, covering distance = speed × time = 12 × (20/60) = 4 km. For a 15-minute trip: Speed = distance ÷ time = 4 ÷ (15/60) = 16 km/hr. She should cycle at 16 km/hr.
The problem is to determine the number of bottles per box as boxes increase. The initial condition shows a direct proportion: 20 bottles in 15 boxes means 20/15 = x/25. Solving gives x = (20 × 25) ÷ 15 = 33.33. Therefore, 34 bottles can be packed approximately as fractions of bottles are improbable in practical scenarios.
To find the length of the shadow cast by the 5 meters 60 cm pole, recognize that the lengths of shadows are directly proportional to the heights of the poles. First, convert the heights to the same unit, meters: the first pole is 10.5 meters and the second is 5.6 meters. Using the ratio of heights: 10.5 ÷ 5.6 = 6 ÷ x, where x is the shadow of the second pole. Solve for x: x = (5.6 × 6) ÷ 10.5 = 3.2 meters. Thus, the second pole's shadow is 3.2 meters long.
First calculate the journey's distance: 38 km/hr × 10 hours = 380 km. To complete it in 8 hours, speed = distance ÷ time = 380 ÷ 8 = 47.5 km/hr. The car needs to travel at 47.5 km/hr, an increase of 47.5 - 38 = 9.5 km/hr.
By reducing the number of animals from 30 to 20, the duration the food lasts changes. The relationship is inversely proportional: as the number of animals decreases, the time increases. The inverse ratio is 30/20 = 4/x, where x is the new duration. Solving gives: x = (30 × 4) ÷ 20 = 6 days. The food will last for 6 days.
