A giant circular fair ride has a radius of 60m, with 12passenger pods spaced around the circumference at equal distances. How far is it directly from the sixth pod to the tenth pod?

The distance between the 6th and 10th seat is approximately 126m

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we will need to calculate the circumference of the circular fair ride.

which the formula is  

The circumference of the circle is 377m

At this point, we will have to take note that the pods are equally spaced.

To get the distance between the sixth pod and the tenth pod, we will have to use the principle of fractions of a whole.

There are 12 seats in total, the distance between the 6th and tenth seat is 4 seats. Expressing this distance in terms of seats, as a fraction is 4/12 equally spaced seats.

This ratio can be related to the circumference of the circle as

Therefore, the distance between the 6th and 10th seat is approximately 126m

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.

but which class are u may know that first
