What is the answer to the U2 question on the Microsoft applications?

U2 has a concert that starts in 17 minutes and they must all cross a bridge to get there. All four men begin on the same side of the bridge. You must help them across to the other side. It is night. There is one flashlight. A maximum of two people can cross at one time. Any party who crosses, either 1 or 2 people, must have the flashlight with them. The flashlight must be walked back and forth, it cannot be thrown, etc. Each band member walks at a different speed. A pair must walk together at the rate of the slower man's pace: * Bono: - 1 minute to cross * Edge: - 2 minutes to cross * Adam: - 5 minutes to cross * Larry: - 10 minutes to cross For example: if Bono and Larry walk across first, 10 minutes have elapsed when they get to the other side of the bridge. If Larry then returns with the flashlight, a total of 20 minutes have passed and you have failed the mission. Bono and Edge go across in 2 minutes Bono comes back in 1 minute - total is now 3 minutes Larry and Adam go across in 10 minutes - total is now 13 minutes Edge comes back in 2 minutes - total is now 15 minutes Bono and Edge go across in 2 minutes - total time is 17 minutes

A grading machine can grade 48 multiple-choice tests in 1 minute how long will it take the machine to grade 300 test how would you set that up as a proportion?

48 = 300 1____x If it takes 1 minute to grade 48 then it will take "x" amount of minutes to grade 300. The first fraction has to equal the second fraction when they are cross multiplied together. 1 times 300 has to equal 48x. Divide both by 48 and you will get x = 6.25 minutes (6 and a quarter minutes) which equates to six minutes 15 seconds.

If you can check 4 items in 1 minute how long will it take you to check 10500 items?

To solve this problem, I would use cross multiplication, which, for this problem, would be set up as: 4 1 = (as of for combining like terms of items and minutes) 10500 ? What you would do is times 10500 by 1 and divide that by 4 which, done properly, would equal 2,625. So, if all of the items are the same in whatever way you are meaning, it will take 2,625 minutes to check 10,500 items if you can check 4 items in 1 minute. Don't like the minutes? Well, we can do the same thing again with the cross multiplication. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, you could set up your equation like so: 60 1 = 2625 ? 2625 time 1 divided by 60 equals 43.75. So, 43.75 hours or, shortening up the typing process of another cross multiplication, would equal 43 hours and 45 minutes. Or, if you would like the days, 2 days, 1 hour, and 45 minutes.
