15 tons of cement yellow sand stones are transported from the construction site, and a kind of concrete is made according to the ratio of 2:3:5


It is impossible to use up all the yellow sand, because there are not enough stones. According to the current feeding quantity, only stones can be used up. When the stones are used up, no more concrete can be prepared. At this time, there are 15 - (15 △ 5 × 2) = 9 cement and 15 - (15 △ 5 × 3) = 6 sand left



The construction site transported 15 tons of cement yellow sand stones, which were made into a kind of concrete according to the ratio of 2:3:5. When all the yellow sand was used up, how many tons of cement remained and how many tons of stones were transported?
The title of Volume 2 of primary school mathematics grade 6 published by Jiangsu Education Press


The concrete is made of 15 tons of cement sand stone and 2:3:5,
It means 2:3:5 times 5 = 10, 15, 25 tons each
How many tons of cement are left?
15-10 = 5 tons
How many tons of stones have been transported?
It means that the stones need to be transported 25-15 = 10 tons



36 tons of cement are transported, which is 3 / 5 less than that of yellow sand. How many tons of yellow sand are transported from the construction site? How many tons of cement are transported less than that of yellow sand?


Huangsha = 36 ÷ (1-3 / 5) = 90 tons
Less = 90-36 = 54 tons



15 tons of cement are transported from the construction site, which is one third less than that of yellow sand. How many tons of yellow sand are transported?


(x-15)/x=1/3 3x-45=x 2x=45 x=22.5
The yellow sand transported is 22.5 tons
