En 16 días se consume 1/8 de la carga de una batería. ¿Cuantos se consumirá en 48 días?

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 of the charge of a battery is consumed in 16 days. How will be consumed in 48 days?

So, to answer this question we simple have to apply a proportion:

(1/8 )/16 = charge consumed /days

For 48 days= x /48 days

(1/8 )/16 = x/48

Solving for x (charge)

[(1/8 )/16] 48 = x

3/8 =x

x= -3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify brackets

4 - x - 1 = 6

step 2: simpilfy

3 - x = 6

step 3: subtract 3 from both sides

-x = 6 - 3

step 4: simpilfy 6 - 3

-x = 3

step 5: multiply both sides by -1

x = -3
