One ton of uranium and 16,000 tons of oil both produce 40 million kilowatts of electricity

to produce 60 million kilowatts of of uranium of oil is needed

To produce 60 million kilowatts of electricity, 1.5 tons of uranium or 24,000 tons of oil is needed.

Explanation:

To solve this question we have to use cross-multiplication. One ton of uranium and 16,000 tons of oil both produce 40 million kilowatts of electricity, and we have to know how much uranium and oil would produce 60 million kilowatts of electricity, so:

-Uranium:

40,000,000 = 1

60,000,000 = X

(60,000,000 x 1) / 40,000,000 = X

1.5 = X

To produce 60 million kilowatts of electricity, 1.5 tons of uranium is needed.

-Oil:

40,000,000 = 16,000

60,000,000 = X

(60,000,000 x 16,000) / 40,000,000 = X

24,000 = X

To produce 60 million kilowatts of electricity, 24,000 tons of oil is needed.
