12. The product of two rational numbers is 48/5. If one of the rational number is 66/7, find the

other rational number.

1. Cups of flour required = 258 = 218
And cups required to make a double receipe = 2×218 = 428 = 214

number of cups available = 514 = 214

Therefore there is enough cup available to make the receipe.

3. Total length of rope = 11 m

total length cut off = 135+3310 = 26+3310 = 5910 m

So remaining length = 11-5910 = 110-5910 = 5110 = 5110 m.

Kindly ask the remaining questions in different threads.
