Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cement : Sand : Gravel

1 : 3 : 5

Cement = 1/9 x 15 kg = 5/3 kg

Sand = 3/9 x 85 kg = 85/3 kg

Gravel = 5/9 x 100 kg = 500/9 kg

Concrete = Cement + Sand + Gravel

180 kg = 5/3 kg + 85/3 kg + 500/9

180 kg = 700/9 kg

180 kg = 85.55555556 kg

No,Talil does not have enough cement,sand and gravel to make the concrete mix.
