Answer:
We are given an area and three different widths and we need to determine the corresponding length and perimeter.
The first width that is provided is 4 yards and to get an area of 100 we need to multiply it by 25 yards. This would mean that our length is 25 yards and our perimeter would be 2(l + w) which is 2(25 + 4) = 58 yards.
The second width that is given is 5 yards and in order to get an area of 100 yards we need to multiply by 20 yards. This would mean that our length is 20 yards and our perimeter would be 2(l + w) which is 2(20 + 5) = 50 yards.
The final width that is given is 10 yards and in order to get an area of 100 yards we need to multiply by 10. This would mean that our length is 10 yards and our perimeter would be 2(l + w) which is 2(10 + 10) = 40 yards.
Therefore the field that would require the least amount of fencing (the smallest perimeter) is option C, field #3.

1.)
Old Number:35
New Number:45
Now, subract the new number(45) from the old number. (35)
45-35 is 10. Now divide the old number (35) by 10.
You'll get 3.5. 3.5%, increase is the answer for #1.
2.) Old: s (students)
New: 36,750
Do 100+5 (Addition because we do not know what the old number is.) 100+5 is 105. Move decimal over twice and you get 1.05. Multiply 36,750 by 1.05.
There were 38,587.5 kids last year.
3.)Since the discount is 15% off, do 100-15=85. Now, move the decimal over from the percent, and that makes that .85. Now multiply 50x.85. You get 42.5, or $42.50. Now the coupon is 10%, So subtract 100-10, giving you 90. Now move the decimal over. .90. Multiply 42.5 (or 42.50) by .90. You get 38.25. You do have enough money.
4.) Subtract 100-15, giving you 85. Move decimal over from percent. .85.
Now you would multiply .85 times k. B should be the answer.
1.111.... so just right 1.2
Let t and p represent the numbers of turtles and pelicans, respectively.
... 2p + 4t = 114 . . . . . . . the number of legs is 114
... p + t = 34 . . . . . . . . . the number of animals is 34
Divide the first equation by 2 and subtract the second.
... (2p +4t)/2 - (p +t) = (114)/2 - 34
... t = 23 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
Then p = 34 - t = 11
There are 11 pelicans and 23 turtles.
_____
You can get to the same answer by considering the number of legs you would have if all the animals were pelicans. That would be 34*2 = 68. The is 46 fewer legs than there actually are. Each turtle that replaces one of those 34 pelicans adds 2 legs to the total, so to add 46 legs, we must replace 46/2 = 23 pelicans with turtles. That is, there are 23 turtles and 11 pelicans.
