To find out how many chocolates will be in 5 boxes, we can use the proportion:

11 boxes / 220 chocolates = 5 boxes / x chocolates

To solve for x, we can set up and solve the proportion:

11/220 = 5/x

To solve for x, we can cross multiply and solve for x:

11x = 220 * 5

11x = 1100

Dividing both sides by 11, we get:

x = 100

Therefore, there will be 100 chocolates in 5 boxes.

To convert yards to feet, we can set up the following proportion:

1 yard / 3 feet = 16 yards / x feet

To solve for x, we can cross multiply and solve for x:

1 * x = 3 * 16

x = 48

Therefore, 16 yards is equal to 48 feet.

To calculate how many liters the cylinder holds, we can set up the following proportion:

1 liter / 1,000 milliliters = x liters / 6,750 milliliters

To solve for x, we can cross multiply and solve for x:

1 * 6,750 = 1,000 * x

6,750 = 1,000x

Dividing both sides by 1,000, we get:

x = 6.75

Therefore, the cylinder holds 6.75 liters. The correct answer is option D.

To calculate the airplane's speed in miles per hour, we can set up the following proportion:

1 kilometer / 0.62 miles = 900 kilometers / x miles

To solve for x, we can cross multiply and solve for x:

1 * x = 0.62 * 900

x ≈ 558

Therefore, the airplane's speed is approximately 558 miles per hour. The correct answer is option A.
