If the required direct materials purchases are 24,000 pounds, the direct materials required for production is three times the direct materials purchases, and the beginning direct materials are three and a half times the direct materials purchases, what are the desired ending direct materials in pounds?
a. 60,000
b. 12,000
c. 36,000
d. 24,000

explained

Step-by-step explanation:

Desired ending direct material

Particulars                                                                       pounds

Beginning direct material (24000*3.5)                             84,000

Add: purchases                                                                  24,000

Direct material available for production                           1,08,000

Less: Direct material required for production                  72,000

Desired ending direct material                                          36,000

therefore, the desire ending direct material are 36,000 pounds

c.   x=2.4cm

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
