A company makes wax candles shaped like rectangular prisms. Each candle is 5 cm long, 4 cm wide, and 15 cm tall. If the company used 5100 cm of wax, how many candles did they make?

5100 cm of wax will make 17 candles

Step-by-step explanation:

Each candle is 5 cm long, 4 cm wide, and 15 cm tall

to know the space they cover, we divide it with their volume and since they are in rectangular prism

Volume is length x width x height

5 x 4 x 15 = 20 x 15 = 300cm

1 candle = 300cm

what number of candle is represented as x

1 candle comprises of  300cm wax

x = 5100

300x = 5100 x 1 =5100

300x= 5100

x= 5100/300 = 17

5100 cm of wax will make 17 candles

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^

amount of oatypop that contains the prize = 40%

amount   of oatypop which doesn't contain the prize = (100-40)=60%

probability that hannah will win a prize

    = s +f s +f f s+ff   f s+ff f f s+ infinity.where f= failure,s= success

=   or 60%

probability that hannah only has to buy 3 or less boxes before getting a prize= (s) and ( f s) and (ff s) and (f f f s)

        = = 87.04 %
