What is the mass of exactly 150 gumballs?

The mass of 150 gumballs would depend on the average mass of one gumball. To find the total mass, you would multiply the mass of one gumball by 150. For example, if each gumball weighs 1 gram, then the total mass would be 150 grams.


A gumball machine contains 51 blue gumballs 128 green gumballs and 93 red gumballs. What percentage of the gumballs that are blue?

First find the total number of gumballs. 51+128+93=272 Next, determine what fraction of the total represents the blue gumballs. 51/272=.1875 The fraction tells us what part of one gumball is represented by the color blue. However we were asked for a percentage (per=how many, cent=100 or how many for each 100). So we should multiply the fraction by 100. The answer then is .1875 multiplied by 100, or 18.75%. That means that if we only had 100 gumballs, 18.75 of those 100 would be blue.


What form of energy is used to dispense the gumballs?

Mechanical energy is typically used to dispense gumballs from a gumball machine. Turning a handle or pushing a button on the machine initiates a mechanical process that releases a gumball for the user.
