Using proportions, it is found that:
- A regular chicken has a weight of 57.4 grams.
- Coronavirus cases from US surpasses Guatemala by 81.63 times.
------------------------
- These questions are solved by proportions, using rules of three.
------------------------
- One feather has 0.0082 grams.
- How many grams are there in 7000 feathers?
1 feather - 0.0082 grams
7000 feathers - x grams
Applying cross multiplication:
[tex]x = 0.0082 \times 7000 = 57.4[/tex]
A regular chicken has a weight of 57.4 grams.
------------------------
- Considering the number of cases in Guatemala equivalent to 1, we find the ratio for the number of cases in the US.
490 000 - 1
40 000 000 - x
Applying cross multiplication:
[tex]490000x = 40000000[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{40000000}{490000}[/tex]
[tex]x = 81.63[/tex]
Coronavirus cases from US surpasses Guatemala by 81.63 times.
