of octane, we would require 0.301 mol/s of air (20%excess) As volumetric efficiency of the engine remains the same, we assume that the air flow rate is the same in each case. Thus we will use 0.301mol/s of air for the dragster fuel mix. Using the ratio of reactants from the balanced equation, we require 0.013mol/s of (9CH3NO2 + C8H18). The power output with the dragster fuel would therefore be;

is recommended that the Marriott corporation calculates several coverage ratios so that it can evaluate it's ability to cover the costs associated with varying levels of debt. There are three coverage ratios, corresponding to the costs associated with increased debt leverage, recommended by Higgins n his book. These ratios are times interest covered, times burden covered, and times common covered. To calculate these ratios EBIT is divided by a specific cost, or sum of costs, to determine how well

of happening. In reality, the Probability of something happening and the odds of something happening are two completely different ways of describing the chances. Simple probability of event A occurring is mathematically defined as: Odds are the ratio of favorable outcomes to unfavorable outcomes: The best way to illustrate this is with the classic marbles-in-a-bag example. The graphic below depicts all the marbles in an opaque bag that one marble will be pulled out of. There are 6 blue, 3

to estimate the size of the bear population. The original bear population will be examined against the later observed population to make this determination. The ration for the original tagged population against the entire population is 50/x The ratio of bears recaptured tagged bears against entire sample 2/100 50 = 2 This is the proportion that will be used to solve the problem by solving for x X 100 Cross multiplying will be used to yield a solution.

Current Ration- Also known as liquidity ratio and working capital ratio shows the proportion of current assets of a business in relation to its current liabilities. Current ratio expresses the extent to which the current liabilities of a business (i.e. liabilities due to be settled within 12 months) are covered by its current assets (i.e. assets expected to be realized within 12 months). A current ratio of 2 would mean that current assets are sufficient to cover for twice the amount of a company's
