Question 1

1.1 A group of students are raising funds for a charity by washing cars. They set a target to wash 60 cars on a Saturday. A graph was drawn to project the number of students needed to wash 60 cars. A local business sponsored the venue and the cleaning products.

1.1.1 Use the graph below to complete the missing numbers in the table by writing only the answer next to the letter (A-D) in the answer book.

\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|}
\hline Number of students & 1 & 2 & B & 4 & C & 12 & 15 \\
\hline Number of cars washed & A & 30 & 20 & 15 & 6 & D & 4 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

(4)

1.1.2 If six students are working, how many cars will each one have to wash?
(1)

1.1.3 How many students will be used if each student only washes two cars?
(1)



Answer :

Sure! Let's go through each part of the question step-by-step:

### Given Data
- A group of students aims to wash 60 cars.
- We need to fill in the missing data in the provided table and answer some related questions.

### Completing the Table
The table and data provided are:

\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|}
\hline Number of students & 1 & 2 & B & 4 & C & 12 & 15 \\
\hline Number of cars washed & A & 30 & 20 & 15 & 6 & D & 4 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

We need to find the values for A, B, C, and D.

1. A: Number of cars washed by 1 student
- If 1 student washes, they can wash 60 cars.

Therefore, A = 60.

2. B: Number of students for 20 cars washed
- If the total number of students required to wash 60 cars is 1, then the proportion for 20 cars would be calculated by [tex]\( \frac{60}{20} \)[/tex].

Therefore, B = 3.

3. C: Number of cars washed by 6 students
- We know that 12 students wash 5 cars. Hence, 6 students wash [tex]\( \frac{5}{12} \times 6 = 10 \)[/tex] cars.

Therefore, C = 10.

4. D: Number of students for 4 cars washed
- Based on the total of 60 cars, the number of students required for 4 cars would be [tex]\( \frac{60}{4} \)[/tex].

Therefore, D = 15.

### Updating the table with the values:
\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|}
\hline Number of students & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 10 & 12 & 15 \\
\hline Number of cars washed & 60 & 30 & 20 & 15 & 10 & 5 & 4 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

### Additional Questions:

1.1.2 If six students are working, how many cars will each one have to wash?

- If 60 cars are to be washed evenly by 6 students, each student will wash [tex]\( \frac{60}{6} = 10 \)[/tex] cars.

Therefore, each student will wash 10 cars.

1.1.3 How many students will be used if each student only washes TWO cars?

- If each student only washes 2 cars, the number of students required to wash 60 cars would be [tex]\( \frac{60}{2} = 30 \)[/tex].

Therefore, 30 students will be used.
