Answer: The oldest one is Vredfort Crater.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is:

Chicxulub was formed 6.5x10^7 years ago.

Vredfort was formed 2x10^9 years ago.

Sudbury basin was formed 1.8x10^9 years ago.

Acraman crater was formed 5.8x10^8 years ago.

We want to find the oldest, so we need to find the larger number of the 4 we have.

For this, we need to see at the exponents, the larger the exponent the larger the number.

We have two with a 9 in the exponent:

Vredfort and Sudbury.

Now we look at the number, Vredfort has 2x10^9 and Sudbury has 1.8x10^9.

Both have the same exponent, but the scalar of Vredfort is larger (2 is greater than 1.8) so we have that Vredfort is older.

oee [108]
So 72 pencils and 24 calculators
so greates number of identical calculators

this means
what is the biggest number that we can divide 72 and 24 by and get a whole number
this is called the GCM or greatest common multipule

to find the GCM, you factor 72 and group the like ones
72=2 times 2 times 2 times 3 times 3
24=2 times 2 times 2 times 3
so the common group is 2 times 2 times 2 times 3 or 24
so the greates number of packs is 24

so pencils
72 divided by 24=72/24=3
3 pencils per pack

24 divided by 24=24/24=1
1 calulator per pack


answer is 3 pencils and 1 calculator per pack

A rectangular tank measuring 35 cm by 28 cm by 16 cm is 2/5 filled with
Alina [70]

Answer:

Amount of water left in tank = 440 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sides of tank respectively = 35 cm , 28 cm , 16 cm  

Water level in tank = 2/5

Side of a cubic tank = 18 cm

Find:

Amount of water left in tank

Computation:

Volume level in rectangular tank = [2/5][35 x 28 x 16]

Volume level in rectangular tank = [2/5][15,680]

Volume level in rectangular tank = [31,360/5]

Volume level in rectangular tank = 6,272 cm³

Volume of cube = side³

Volume of cube = 18³

Volume of cube = 5,832 cm³

Amount of water left in tank = Volume level in rectangular tank - Volume of cube

Amount of water left in tank = 6,272 - 5,832

Amount of water left in tank = 440 cm³

6 tractors take 10days to collect the harvest. How long would it take 18 tractors to do the same amount of work?
Nutka1998 [239]
This is a question of proportionality. However, it is not direct proportionality as it is expected that as the number of tractors increases, the work is finished faster as opposed to fewer number of tractors. This is referred to as inverse proportionality.

Therefore;
6 tractors ----- 10 days
18 tractors --- x days

Then,
x = (6*10)/18 = 10/3 days = 3 days, and 8 hours.

This means that 18 tractors will take 3 days and 8 hours to collect the same harvest.
