Ques:- A county cricket team has won 10 matches and lost 4. If these matches represent 70% of the matches to be played, how many more matches should the team win so as to have a record of 75% wins?
Recent Answer : Added by DK BOSS On 2021-07-17 06:18:54:
Let the total number of matches to played in the tournament be ‘x’.
Given that A county cricket team has won 10 matches and lost 4.
That means total number of matches played = 14.
So,
= > 70% of x = 14
= > (70/100) * x = 14
= > 70x = 1400
= > x = 20.
So, the number of matches to be played = 20.
They have a record of exactly 75% wins = 20 * 75/100
= > 15.
Therefore, the number of matches should the team win = 15 – 10 = 5.
Hope this helps!

Ques:- A coffee shop blends 2 kinds of coffee,putting in 2 parts of a 33p. a gm. grade to 1 part of a 24p. a gm.If the mixture is changed to 1 part of the 33p. a gm. to 2 parts of the less expensive grade,how much will the shop save in blending 100 gms.
Recent Answer : Added by Ashu On 2021-01-30 01:20:12:
Initially (2*33 + 1*24)/(2+1) = 30p a gm
So, cost for 100g = 100*30 = 3000p
Later, (1*33 + 2*24)/(1+2) = 71/3 p a gm.
So, cost for 100g = 100*(71/3) = 2366.67p
He saves 3000 – 2366.67 = 633.33p

Ques:- Five farmers have 7, 9, 11, 13 & 14 apple trees, respectively in their orchards. Last year, each of them discovered that every tree in their own orchard bore exactly the same number of apples. Further, if the third farmer gives one apple to the first, and the fifth gives three to each of the second and the fourth, they would all have exactly the same number of apples. What were the yields per tree in the orchards of the third and fourth farmers?
Recent Answer : Added by John Rony On 2021-06-23 17:56:01:
So we consider the 2nd statement first. We can form an equation out of it.
14x-6=13y+3=9z+3
Using this, we can understand that the multiple of 14 and the multiple of 13 and 9 must have a difference of 9. The easiest way to ensure that is multiplying it by 9
14*9=126
13*9=117
If the 5th farmer gives 3 apples to the 4th farmer, they would have 123 and 120 apples respectively. However, we also know that the 2nd farmer has 117 apples (13*9=117, and this is a multiple of 9) if the 5th farmer gives 3 apples too the 2nd farmer, the 3rd, 4th and 5th farmers would have 120 apples each.
Now that we got 120, we should check if the first part of the question makes sense along with it. The equation would be
7a+1=11b-1=120
We know that 11*11=121 and 7*17=119. When we add 1 to 119 and subtract 1 from 121, we get 120 for each. In this way, all the farmers have 120 apples each.
Therefore, the 3rd farmer had a yield of 11 per tree and the 4th farmer had a yield of 9 per tree.

Let the total number of matches to played in the tournament be ‘x’.
Given that A county cricket team has won 10 matches and lost 4.
That means total number of matches played = 14.
So,
= > 70% of x = 14
= > (70/100) * x = 14
= > 70x = 1400
= > x = 20.
So, the number of matches to be played = 20.
They have a record of exactly 75% wins = 20 * 75/100
= > 15.
Therefore, the number of matches should the team win = 15 – 10 = 5.
Hope this helps!
