Paul is making bread using a recipe. The amount of flour he uses is proportional to the number of loaves of bread. He uses 1114

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

$20

Step-by-step explanation:

Paul is making bread using a recipe. The amount of flour he uses is proportional to the number of loaves of bread. He uses 11 1/4 cups of flour to make 5 loaves of bread. If Paul used 18 cups of flour, and then sold the loaves of bread he made at a bake sale for $2.50 each, how much money would Paul make from his bread sales?

Step 1

Find out how many loaves of bread he can produce from 18 cups of flour

11 1/4 cups of flour = 5 loaves of bread

18 cups of flour = x loaves of bread

Cross Multiply

11 1/4 cups × x loaves = 18 cups × 5 loaves

x loaves = 18 cups × 5 loaves/ 11 1/4 cups

x loaves = 90 ÷ 11 1/4

x loaves = 90 ÷ 45/4

x loaves = 90 × 4/45

x loaves = 8 loaves of bread

He can produce 8 loaves of bread from 18 cups of flour.

Step 2

We are told that:

1 loaf of bread costs $2.50

Hence,

1 loaf of bread = $2.50

8 loaves of bread = $x

Cross Multiply

$x = 8 loaves of bread × $2.50

$x = $20

Therefore, Paul made $20 from his bread sales

Chan receives a bonus from his job. He pays 30% in taxes, gives 30% to charity, and uses another 15% to pay off an old debt. He

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Chan's Bonus amount was $2400.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Total amount receive from bonus be 'x'.

Given:

Chan pays 30% in taxes;

So we can say;

Amount paid in taxes will be equal to 30% of total amount receive

framing in equation form we get;

Amount paid in taxes = $\frac{30}{100}x=0.3x = 0.3x$

Now Given:

Chan pays 30% in Charity;

So we can say;

Amount paid in charity will be equal to 30% of total amount receive.

framing in equation form we get;

Amount paid in Charity = $\frac{30}{100}x=0.3x$

Also Given:

Chan pays 30% in old debts;

So we can say;

Amount paid in Old debts will be equal 30% of total amount receive

framing in equation form we get;

Amount paid in Old debts = $\frac{15}{100}x=0.15x$

Money left with him = $600

Now we can say that Total Amount Receive in bonus will be equal to Amount paid in taxes plus Amount paid in charity plus Amount paid in old debts plus amount left.

framing in equation form we get;

$x=0.3x+0.3x+0.15x+600\\\\x= 0.75x +600\\\\x-0.75x=600\\\\0.25x=600\\\\x=\frac{600}{0.25} = \$2400$
