Question

В одному магазині було 185 кг цукерок, а в другому - 237кг. Перший магазин продавав щодня 15кг, а другий - 18кг. Через скільки днів у другому магазині залишиться цукерок в 1,5 рази більше, ніж у першому?

Answer 1

х днів - продаватимуть цукерки

(237 - 18х)кг - цукерок залишиться у ІІ магазині через х днів

(185 - 15х)кг - цукерок залишиться у І магазині через х днів

(237 - 18х) / (185 - 15х) = 1,5

237-18х=277,5-22,5х

4,5х=40,5

х=9(днів)

Відповідь: через 9 днів

Answer 2

Calculation of Remaining Chocolates

To calculate the number of days it will take for the second store to have 1.5 times more chocolates than the first store, we need to follow these steps:

1. Calculate the initial number of chocolates in each store. 2. Calculate the daily sales of chocolates in each store. 3. Determine the number of days it will take for the second store to have 1.5 times more chocolates than the first store.

Let's go through each step in detail.

Step 1: Calculate the initial number of chocolates in each store

The first store initially had 185 kg of chocolates, while the second store had 237 kg of chocolates. To compare the two stores, we need to convert the kilograms to the same unit of measurement. Let's assume that 1 kg of chocolates is equal to 1 unit.

Therefore, the first store initially had 185 units of chocolates, and the second store had 237 units of chocolates.

Step 2: Calculate the daily sales of chocolates in each store

The first store sold 15 kg of chocolates per day, while the second store sold 18 kg of chocolates per day. Again, we need to convert the kilograms to units.

Therefore, the first store sold 15 units of chocolates per day, and the second store sold 18 units of chocolates per day.

Step 3: Determine the number of days it will take for the second store to have 1.5 times more chocolates than the first store

To find the number of days it will take for the second store to have 1.5 times more chocolates than the first store, we can set up the following equation:

(185 + 15x) * 1.5 = 237 + 18x

Where: - x represents the number of days. - (185 + 15x) represents the total number of chocolates in the first store after x days. - (237 + 18x) represents the total number of chocolates in the second store after x days. - 1.5 represents 1.5 times more chocolates.

Now, let's solve the equation to find the value of x.

185 + 15x * 1.5 = 237 + 18x 277.5 + 22.5x = 237 + 18x 4.5x = 237 - 277.5 4.5x = -40.5 x = -40.5 / 4.5 x = -9

The solution to the equation is x = -9. However, since we are dealing with the number of days, which cannot be negative, we can conclude that it is not possible for the second store to have 1.5 times more chocolates than the first store based on the given information.

Therefore, the answer is that the second store will not have 1.5 times more chocolates than the first store.

Please note that the given information does not provide enough details to determine the exact number of days it will take for the second store to have 1.5 times more chocolates than the first store.
