Zorluk: OrtaBasic Ratios

An aviation maintenance squadron stocks a specific fastener kit containing standard bolts, lock washers, and retaining nuts in a ratio of 7:4:37:4:3. If a master storage bin contains a total of 840840 of these combined items in this exact ratio, how many lock washers are in the bin?

Cevap: 240 lock washers

Cevap

There are 240 lock washers in the bin.
The total number of items (840840) is divided by the sum of all ratio parts (1414) to find the value of a single share (6060). This share is then multiplied by the specific ratio number corresponding to lock washers (44) to find the final quantity (240240).
