Question

Find the fourth proportional of 4 hours 40 minutes, 1 hour 10 minutes and 16 hours.

Sum

Solution

Fourth proportional of 4 hours 40 minutes, 1 hour 10 minutes and 16 hours.

4 hours 40 minutes = 4 × 60 + 40

= 240  40 = 280

1 hour 10 minutes = 1 × 60 + 10

= 60 + 10 = 70 minutes

16 hours = 16 × 60 = 960 minutes

∴ Fourth proportional = `(70 xx 960)/280`

= 240 minutes = `240/60` = 4 hours
