Let the shares be 4x and 7x

Now 4x + 7x = 1980

11x = 1980

x = 1980/11

x = 180

So the shares are

4x = 4(180) = 720

7x = 7(180) = 1260

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the ratio in equation form:

4:7= 4x+7x

Now write the equation with 1980 as the answer

4x+7x=1980

Simplify

11x=1980

now divide by 11 on both sides to isolate the variable

11x/11=x

1980/11=180

so x=180

180*4=720

180*7=1260

Check: 1260+720=1980

jasenka [17]

Answer:

  3 1/2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem in units conversion. We want to get from bags to hours by way of minutes per bag. One bag takes an effort of 2/3 person·minute, so we need to divide the total effort by the number of persons and convert minutes to hours.

  (1575 bags)×(2/3 person·min/bag)/(5 person)/(60 min/h)

  = (1575)(2/3)(1/5)(1/60) h = 3.5

It will take the 5 of them about 3 1/2 hours to prepare 1575 bags.
