Cross multiplication method
               Let the cost of electricity for 30 kWh be x sen.
               Then,
                      43.6     x
                            =
                                                                                     a
                                                                                         c

                                                                                         d
                                                                                     b
                     2 × x  =  43.6 × 30                                           a × d = b × c.
                              43.6 × 30
                         x  =
                                  2
                            =  654
               Thus, the cost of electricity consumption for 30 kWh is RM6.54.

               1.  In a sports carnival, there are 200 players in 8 rugby teams. Determine the number of
                   players in 2 teams if each team has the same number of players.
               2.  During  the  SEGAK test in  the  Physical  Education  lesson, Amir  is able  to  do 60
                   push-ups in 3 minutes. How many push-ups can Amir do in 5 minutes?
                   (Assume that Amir does the push-ups at the same rate.)
                                                              2
               3.  A farmer plants three chilli plants per 0.5 m . How many chilli plants can he plant in
                   an area of 85 m ?

                                         4.3          Open the folder downloaded from page vii for extra
                                                      questions of Mastery Q 4.3.

               1.  Write  a proportion for each of the following situations. Use a suitable variable to
                   represent the required information.
                   (a)  Puan Jamilah mixes 175 ml of olive oil and 50 ml of vinegar to make a marinade.
                        What is the volume of vinegar required if Puan Jamilah uses 300 ml of olive oil
                        to make the marinade?
                   (b)  A meteorologist used a rain gauge to measure the
                        amount of rain in a city. He found out that the total
                        rainfall in the city was 7.8 mm within 3 hours. If the
                        rainfall continues at the same rate, how long will it
                        take for the rainfall to reach 11.7 mm?


               2.  A gear is a simple machine consisting of wheels with teeth. When a large gear rotates
                   4 times, a small gear will rotate 18 times at the same time. How many times will the
                   large gear rotate if the small gear rotates 54 times?

               3.  A gardener spends half an hour to mow and weed the lawn which has a measurement
                   of 20 m × 15 m. He is paid RM30 per hour. How much is he paid for a lawn which
                   has a measurement of 40 m × 30 m?
