A revolving restaurant rotates one complete turn every 56 minutes. In the 21 minutes it takes to eat the peaches jubilee dessert, through how many degrees does the restaurant revolve?

21/56 = 3/8 = 135/360 = 135 degrees

Well, if the revolving restaurant rotates one complete turn every 56 minutes, then we can calculate how many degrees it rotates per minute.

One complete turn is equal to 360 degrees. So, in 56 minutes, the restaurant rotates 360 degrees.

To find out how many degrees the restaurant rotates in 21 minutes, we can set up a proportion:

56 minutes = 360 degrees
21 minutes = x degrees

Cross-multiplying, we find that x = (21 * 360) / 56.

Using a calculator, we get x ≈ 135 degrees.

So, while enjoying your peaches jubilee dessert, the restaurant will revolve approximately 135 degrees. But don't worry, your dessert won't be that dizzying!

To find out how many degrees the restaurant revolves in 21 minutes, we need to determine the fraction of a complete turn that occurs in that time.

First, we can calculate how many complete turns the restaurant makes in 21 minutes:
1 complete turn = 56 minutes
x complete turns = 21 minutes

To find x, we can set up a proportion:
1 turn / 56 minutes = x turns / 21 minutes

Simplifying the proportion, we have:
56x = 1 * 21
56x = 21
x = 21 / 56
x ≈ 0.375

Therefore, the restaurant makes approximately 0.375 complete turns in 21 minutes.

To calculate how many degrees this is, we can multiply the fraction of a turn by the number of degrees in a complete turn, which is 360 degrees:
0.375 turns * 360 degrees = 135 degrees

So, the restaurant revolves through approximately 135 degrees during the 21 minutes it takes to eat the peaches jubilee dessert.
