      Giving it a try, on ipad it is difficult to draw model



      D _______________________

      A. [3u
      ]-------430m------

      B. [
      ]----480m----

      C. [u
      ]–300m–

      So
      2u = 300m + 480m
      u = 390m

      Total distance D = 3x390m + 430m
      = 1600m
      = 1km 600m

            Hi

            5 bags + 5 books = 3 kg 59g + 5 kg 36g = 8kg 95g = 8095 g
            1 bag + 1 book = 1619 g

            4 bags + 2 books = 5 kg 36g = 5036 g
            2 bags = 5036 - 2 x 1619 = 1798, 1 bag = 899 g
            8 bags + 5 books = 3 x 899 + 5 x 1619 = 10792 = 10kg 792g

            cheers.

              (b) if Ann was 430m away from the finishing line, what was the total distance of the race?

                    Pls help me on this P3 question; Thanks!

                    A box can be filled either with 21 big balls or 49 small balls.
                    If there are already 35 small balls in the box, how many big balls can still be placed in the box?

                      If there are already 35 small balls in the box, how many big balls can still be placed in the box?
                      The space for putting the big balls and small balls ratio is

                      For every 7(49) small balls, it can accomodate 3(21) big balls.

                      49-35 = 14 small balls space available.

                      14 small balls space can accomodate 6 big balls.

                      Hence 6 big balls can be placed in the box.
