A project manager has ordered 252 pallets of concrete blocks for a construction project. Casone's trucks can each carry 14 pallets of blocks at a time. The project manager used partial quotients to find the number of delivery trucks to expect. His work is shown at the right. Is his solution correct? Explain

18 trucks of delivery

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pallets of concrete blocks ordered = 252 pallets

If each truck can carry 14pallets, then;

1 truck = 14pallets

To determine the number of delivery truck 252pallets can carry, we can express this as:

x truck = 252pallets

Divide both expressions

1/x = 14/252

Cross multiply

14x = 1×252

14x = 252

x = 252/14

x = 18

Hence the manger should expect 1 18 trucks of delivery

step-by-step explanation:

34.5 cm

step-by-step explanation:

generally for a circular segment of angle, θ° and radius r

arc length

= (θ/360) x circumference

= (θ/360) x 2πr

in our case, θ = 60°, π=3.142 and r = 33 cm

substitute into above formula

arc length

= (60/360) x 2(3.142)( 33) = 34.5 cm
