Sue makes 50 litres of green paint by mixing litres of yellow paint and litres of blue paint in the ratio 1:4. Yellow paint is sold in 5 litre tins and each tin of yellow paint costs £38. Blue paint is sold in 10 litre tins and each tin of blue paint costs £58. Sue sells all the green paint she makes in 10 litre tins at £89.32 per tin. Work out Sue's percentage profit on each tin of green paint she sells.

Sue's percentage profit = 9% on each tin of green paint she sells.

Step-by-step explanation:

Litres of green paints mixed = 50 litres

Ratio of litres of yellow paint and litres of blue paint = 1:4.

To determine the litres of yellow paint, we say:

To determine the litres of blue paint, we say:

Since yellow paint is sold in 5 litres per tin and each tin cost £38; she has 10 litres of yellow paint in all. That implies that she has 10/5 = 2 tin of yellow paint. If one tin cost £38; 2 tin cost 2 × £38 = £76

Similarly,

Since blue paint is sold in 10 litres per tin and each tin cost £58; she has 40 litres of blue paint in all. That implies that she has 40/10 = 4 tin of blue paint. If one tin cost £58; 4 tin cost 4 × £58 = £232

Total cost of yellow and blue paints = £232 + £76

= £308

Since Sue sells all the green paint she makes in 10 litre tins at £89.32 per tin and she has 50 litres in all; we say: 50/10 litres = 5 tins = 5 × £89.32 = £446.60.

Thus, selling price of the green paint = £446.60

Sue's percentage profit for selling all the tins of green paint is 45%, having sold 5 tins. Therefore, Sue's percentage profit for selling each of the paint will be:

Hence, Sue's percentage profit for selling each tin of green paint is 9%.

Proof

9% × 5 tins of green paint = 45%

0.84 dang lotta people are looking for this lol or if you round up its 1 but the overall answer to that is 0.84

step-by-step explanation:

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
