Answer:

300 tarts

Step-by-step explanation:

we must solve this equation by going backwards

3/4 of something (as 1/4 was given away) is 150

150 / 3/4 is what you must do

or

150 * 4/3

that is

200

3/5 was sold so 2/5 was left

2/5 of something is 200

200 / 2/5

200 * 5/2

that is

500

3/5 of that was sold

so

500 * 3/5 is 300

300 tarts were sold

Kala purchased a prepaid phone card for $30. Long distance calls cost 9 cents a minute using this card. Kala used her card only
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The call lasted 13 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are told to find the number of minutes a call lasted.

The initial amount on the card is $30 and after making a phone call just once, the balance went down to $28.83

What was used would be 30 - 28.83 = $1.17 or simply 117 cents

Now these long calls come at a cost of 9 cents per minute and we have a total of 117 cents here; the number of minutes is thus 117/9 = 13

This means Kala spent 13 minutes on the call
