A grocery store clerk put only packages of flour tortillas and packages of corn tortillas on a shelf. The ratio of the number of packages of corn tortillas to the total number of packages on the shelf was 7 to 16. Which number could represent the number of packages of flour tortillas the clerk put on the shelf?

18

Step-by-step explanation:

The options are:

A. 23

B. 18

C. 14

D. 32

Since we are told that the ratio of the number of packages of corn tortillas to the total number of packages on the shelf was 7 to 16. This simply means that the ratio of flour tortillas to the total number of packages on the shelf was (16 -7 = 9) 9 to 16.

Therefore, to get the number that could represent the number of packages of flour tortillas the clerk put on the shelf we have to find the multiple of 9 in the question given . This will be:

Multiples of 9 = 9, 18, 27, 36, 45

Based on the option, the answer will be 18.

since the airplane is moving with constant speed then the distance travelled can be calculated by x=u*t

in km/h would be:

x=640*3.5=2.240 km

in m/s would be:

u=640 km/h= 640.000 m/h =640.000/ 3600 m/s =177.8 m/s

t= 3.5 h= 3.5 * 3600 s=12.600 s

then x=u*t= 177.8*12.600= 2.240.280 m
