Answer:
8 bags
Step-by-step explanation:
You divided them by 20 which gives you 4. So you take the 3 and multiply by 4 which is 12 bags. And then you do the same for your bags which makes you do 2 times 4 which gives you 8. You take 20 - 12 and that leaves you with 8.
The answer is A because when a question asks how much is left it typically means that you will need to subtract.
Answer:
Inequality: 3 + 1.2c
What you'd put on graph: 1 ≥ 13.50
Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.
