A. 45 km A. 45 km Step 1: Convert time to hours. Step 2: Use the formula for distance: Step 3: Calculate:
$$
60 \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{180}{4} = 45.
$$ Final Answer:
B. 60 km
C. 75 km
D. 80 kmShow Answer
Since 1 hour = 60 minutes,
$$
\begin{aligned}
45 \text{ minutes} &= \frac{45}{60} \text{ hours} \\
&= \frac{3}{4} \text{ hours}.
\end{aligned}
$$
$$
\text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time}.
$$
Substitute the values:
$$
\text{Distance} = 60 \text{km/h} \times \frac{3}{4} \text{h}.
$$
The car will travel $\boxed{45}$ kilometers.

A. 12 cups D. 15 cups Step 1: Set up the proportion. The ratio of flour to sugar is (3 : 2). Let (x) be the cups of flour needed for 10 cups of sugar. $$
\frac{3}{2} = \frac{x}{10}
$$ Step 2: Cross-multiply to solve for (x). Multiply both sides by 2 and 10 to eliminate denominators: $$
\begin{align*}
3 \times 10 &= 2 \times x \\
30 &= 2x
\end{align*}
$$ Step 3: Divide both sides by 2 to isolate (x).
$$
\begin{align*}
x &= \frac{30}{2} \\
&= 15

A. 80 cm² B. 100 cm² Step 1: Find the side length of the square. Let $s$ be the side length. The perimeter $P$ of a square is $P = 4s$. Given $P = 40$ cm: $$
4s = 40
$$ Divide sides by 4: $$
s = \frac{40}{4} = 10 \text{ cm}
$$ Step 2: Calculate the area. The area $A$ of a square is $A = s^2$. Substitute $s = 10$: $$
A = 10^2 = 100

A. 2 D. 5 Step 1: Move all terms involving $y$ to one side and constants to the other. Start with: $$
3y + 7 = 5y - 3
$$ Subtract $3y$ from both sides: $$
\begin{align*}
3y + 7 - 3y &= 5y - 3 - 3y \\
7 &= 2y - 3
\end{align*}
$$ Step 2: Isolate the $y$-term. Add 3 to both sides: $$
\begin{align*}
7 + 3 &= 2y - 3 + 3 \\
10 &= 2y
\end{align*}
$$ Step 3: Solve for $y$. Divide both sides by 2: $$
\begin{align*}
\frac{10}{2} &= \frac{2y}{2} \\

A. 31.4 cm² C. 78.5 cm² Step 1: Recall the formula for the area of a circle: Step 2: Find the radius. Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula. Step 4: Calculate the square of the radius: Step 5: Multiply by $\pi$: Final Answer:
B. 62.8 cm²
C. 78.5 cm²
D. 314 cm²Show Answer
$$A = \pi r^2$$
where $r$ is the radius.
The diameter is given as $10$ cm, so the radius is half of that:
$$
r = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \text{ cm}
$$
Use $\pi = 3.14$ and $r = 5$:
$$
A = 3.14 \times (5)^2

$$
(5)^2 = 25
$$
$$
A = 3.14 \times 25 = 78.5
$$
$$
\boxed{78.5} \text{ cm}^2

More workers take fewer days, and fewer workers take more days.
Let the total work be measured in “worker-days”.
$5$ workers $\times 12$ days $= 60$ worker-days.
Then:
$$
\begin{align*}
3 \text{ workers} \times d \text{ days} \\
= 60 \text{ worker-days}
\end{align*}
$$
$$
3d = 60 \\
d = \frac{60}{3} = 20
$$
$$
\boxed{20} \text{ days}
