Answer:
[tex]\Large \boxed{\mathrm{27. \ 14 \ days}} \\ \\ \Large \boxed{\mathrm{29. \ 4 \frac{1}{6} \ feet}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
(27)
We can apply ratios to solve for the problem.
Let x be the missing value.
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{152}{4} =\frac{532}{x}[/tex]
Cross multiply.
152 × x = 532 × 4
152x = 2128
Divide both sides by 152.
x = 14
(29)
We can apply ratios to solve for the problem.
Let x be the missing value.
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{6\frac{1}{4} } =\frac{\frac{2}{3} }{x}[/tex]
Cross multiply.
1 × x = 6 1/4 × 2/3
x = 6 1/4 × 2/3
Convert mixed fraction to improper fraction.
x = 25/4 × 2/3
x = 50/12
Simplify.
x = 25/6 or 4 1/6
