Gears A and B turn together. Gear A turns 20 times when Gear B turns 30 times. When Gear A turns 60 times, how many times does Gear B turn? Show your work.
Q. Gears A and B turn together. Gear A turns 20 times when Gear B turns 30 times. When Gear A turns 60 times, how many times does Gear B turn? Show your work.
Understand Gear Relationship: Step 1: Understand the relationship between the turns of Gear A and Gear B. Gear A turns 20 times while Gear B turns 30 times. This sets a ratio of turns between Gear A and Gear B. Calculation: Ratio = Gear A turns / Gear B turns = 3020=32.
Apply Ratio Calculation: Step 2: Apply the ratio to find out how many times Gear B turns when Gear A turns 60 times.Using the ratio from Step 1, if Gear A turns 60 times, Gear B turns = (60×3)/2.Calculation: Gear B turns = (60×3)/2=90.
