Question

A bicycle factory produces 1505 bicycles in a week. How many bicycles will it produce in 30 days?

and
20 apples are distributed between Aaron and Ben in the ratio 2 : 3. Find, how many does each get?

Answer 1

It will produce 6450 bicycles in 30 days

Aaron has 8 apples and Ben has 12 apples

Explanation:

A)

A bicycle factory produces 1505 bicycles in a week.

No. of days in 1 week = 7

So, Number of bicycles produced in 7 days = 1505

Number of bicycles produced in 1 day =
`(1505)/(7)`

Number of bicycles produced in 30 days =
`(1505)/(7) * 30=6450`

So, It will produce 6450 bicycles in 30 days

B)20 apples are distributed between Aaron and Ben in the ratio 2 : 3.

Let the ratio be x

So, Aaron has apples = 2x

Ben has apples = 3x

So, 2x+3x=20

5x=20

x=4

Aaron has apples = 2x =2(4)=8

Ben has apples = 3x =3(4)=12

Hence Aaron has 8 apples and Ben has 12 apples
