A bag contains yellow marbles in red marbles 65 in total. The number of yellow marbles is five more than four times the number of red marbles. How many yellow marbles are there?

Answers

Answer: there would be 52 yellow marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok we know that there is 65 marbles in total? Right? So then we’d take 65 and think, what could we divide this by and start guessing and estimating numbers. (I guessed 5, one because it’s divisible by 65, two there is 5 times more yellow marbles than red marbles.) So 5 divided by 65 is 13. But, in order to find the amount of yellow marbles, we need to subtract the whole number by the amount of red marbles. (So 65-13 =?) if you subtract that you get 52 yellow marbles. :)

Explain how you would convert 4meters to millimeters

Answers

"mil" actually means "a thousand" in latin. More crucially, a millimetre is a thousandth of a metre. This means that 4 metres is in fact 4000 millimetres...

$1\quad millimetre\quad =\quad \frac { 1 }{ 1000 } metre\n \n 4000\left( 1\quad millimetre \right) =\quad 4000\left( \frac { 1 }{ 1000 } metre \right) \n \n \therefore \quad 4000\quad millimetres\quad =\quad 4\quad metres$

Since 1 meter equals to 1,000 millimeters because 'milli' means 1,000.If there are 4 meters, then that means multiply it by 4 to the top and bottom.Therfore you would get 4,000 millimeters in 4 meters
