1 Bill is a builder.
On Monday he made mortar mix.
He used 24kg of sand and 5kg of cement.
On Tuesday he will make the same type of mortar mix.
He will use 36kg of sand.
How much cement does he need to make the same type of mortar mix?

7.5kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Monday:

Mass of sand = 24 kg

Mass of cement = 5 kg

Tuesday :

Mass of sand = 36 kg

Let mass of cement = c

Mass of cement required to make the same type of mortar mix

Mass of Sand = mass of cement

24kg = 5kg

36kg = c

By cross multiplication :

24 * c = 5 * 36

24c = 180

Divide both sides by 24

c = 180 / 24

c = 7.5 kg

Hence mass of cement required is 7.5 kg
