Answer:
3.75 cups of baking soda are needed to make 2 and 1/2 batches of the cleaning product
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved by a rule of three.
A recipe says that 1 and 3/4 cups of baking soda are needed to make one batch of a homemade cleaning product.
1 + 3/4 cups = 1 + 0.75 = 1.75 cups for one batch.
How many total cups of baking soda are needed to make 2 and 1/2 batches of the cleaning product?
2 and 1/2 batches is 2 + 0.5 = 2.5 batches.
1.75 cups for one batch. How many cups for 2.5 batches? So
1 batch - 1.5 cups
2.5 batches - x cups
c = 2.5*1.5 = 3.75
3.75 cups of baking soda are needed to make 2 and 1/2 batches of the cleaning product
The price of the duck because the 5 in the price of the horse is in the ones place. So you will have to divide by 10 to get to the 5 in the duck's price.
In this case u can’t use the distributive property. U just multiple whats in the parenthesis (39•5)=195 and that’s ur answer.
Let’s say if the problem said 5(2+1) u can’t use the distributive property bc u have to do what’s in the parentheses first. 5(3)=15
But If u had a problem like 2(4x+6) then u can use the distributive property. This is bc u can’t add 4x+6 bc they aren’t like terms. So u multiple the 2 by 4x which is 8x and the 2 by 6 which is 12 then ur answer would be : 8x+12
