Answer:
<u><em>$4.50 or $4.5</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>well, this is easy</u></em>
<em><u>30% equals to 0.30 right.</u></em>
<em><u>we can't divide because if we do then the answer would be 50$ and that's way more money than Jill has.</u></em>
<em><u>so your wondering. What do we do?</u></em>
<em><u>Well, what's 30% of 15?</u></em>
<em><u>It's 4.5</u></em>
<em><u>4 dollars and 5 cents that U will have with Jill.</u></em>
Answer:
There are 10 pigs and 30 chickens
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of pigs be x
let the number of chickens be y
Then there are 40 heads . So the total number of pigs and chickens is 40
x + y = 40-----------------------(1)
We know that pigs have 4 legs and chickens have 2 legs
4x + 2y = 100----------------------(2)
Solving (1) and (2)
multiply (1) by 2
2x + 2y = 80-------------------------(3)
subtract (3) from (2)
4x + 2y = 100
2x + 2y = 80
----------------------------
2x = 20
----------------------------

x = 10
Now Substituting x in (1), we get
10 + y = 40
y = 40 - 10
y = 30
104 ÷ 5.1 = 20.3921
Nearest tenth 20.4
