A design is made using three times as many large beads as small beads.

The mass of each large bead is 140 milligrams.

The mass of each small bead is 40 milligrams.

The total mass of all the beads used is 92 grams.

How many beads are used in total to make the design?

`800`

Show Worked Solution
`text(Let)\ \ \ x` `= text( number of small beads)`
`3x` `= text( number of large beads)`

 

`3x (0.14) + x (0.04)` `= 92`
`0.42x + 0.04 x` `= 92`
`0.46 x` `= 92`
`x` `= 200`

`text(17 pieces)`

Show Worked Solution

`text(Volume of 1 piece)\ = 1/2 xx 6 xx 7.9 xx text(Width)`

`text(Width)` `= 40/(1/2 xx 6 xx 7.9)`
  `= 1.688\ text(cm)`

 

 `:.\ text(Maximum number of pieces that fit)`

`= 30/1.688`

`= 17.77`
