Answer:
4.75 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Before the termites: 5 pounds
After the termites: 1/4 of a pound
Amount that the termites took: x
5 - x = 1/4
Add x to both sides of the equation
5 = 1/4 + x
Subtract 1/4 from both sides of the equation
4 3/4 = x
4 3/4 = 4.75
The termites took 4.75 pounds from the log

255/56 = 4.55....
You can't have 0.55... buses so you round that up to 1.
Therefore 4+1 = 5 so 5 buses would be the minimum.
K/75 + 57.1 = 40.8
k/75 = 40.8 - 57.1
k/75 = -16.3
k = -16.3 • 75
k = -1222.5 or -1222 1/2
Hope it helps!
