Mai's family drinks a total of 10 gallons of milk every 6 weeks. how many gallons of milk does the family drink per week? how many weeks does it take the family to consume 1 gallon of milk?

Answer 1: The family drinks 5/3 = 1.67 gallons of milk per week

Answer 2: The family needs 3/5 = 0.6 weeks to consume 1 gallon of milk

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this question by using the logic behind simple proportions.

Since Mai's family drinks 10 gallons of milk every 6 weeks, the proportion of gallons per week is 10/6, or 5/3

Answer 1: The family drinks 5/3 = 1.67 gallons of milk per week

To know the number of weeks taken for the family to consume 1 gallon of milk, we use the reciprocal proportion 3/5 which means the number of weeks the family needs to consume one gallon of milk

Answer 2: The family needs 3/5 = 0.6 weeks to consume 1 gallon of milk

18

step-by-step explanation:

draw the shape and you will see that f and k are actually at adjacent vertices (points of the hexagon that are neighboring).   so find the distance between (1,2) and (4,2).   that is easy since (1,2) and (4,2) is just a vertical distance to count, which is 3.   it is a regular polygon which means all sides are congruent.   you have 6 sides (hexa) so multiply 6 by 3 to receive 18.
