The answer must be a whole number because for example how are you suppose to fit half a child on a bus that can hold 44 people when it already holds that amount.
It will always be a whole number because if there are several left over students they will be put in another bus with more empty seats.
Answer: c)She should have multiplied 15 by 3 instead of dividing.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of quilts Ruby plan to make in one month= 3
which means if Ruby makes more than 3 quilts, the time will be more than 1 month.
To find the number of months to make 15 quilts, she need to divide 15 by 3
Thus, the number of months to make 15 quilts=5
Her answer was 1/5 which was absolutely wrong as if she is making 3 quilt in 1 month then in 1/5 month she would make fewer than 3 quilts.
She divides 3 by 15 instead of 15 by 3, thus but the unit is quilts not months.
Thus the only wrong option is c)She should have multiplied 15 by 3 instead of dividing.
275 is the answer to the question
Answer:
20 ft long; 12 ft wide
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w = the width of the garden
Then l = w + 8
A = lw
A = (w + 8)w
=====
The sidewalk is 4 ft wide, so, for the big rectangle consisting of garden plus sidewalk:
Width = w +8
Length = w + 16
Area = (w + 8)(w + 16)
=====
The <em>difference</em> between the two areas is the area of the sidewalk (320 ft²).
(w + 8)(w + 16) - (w + 8)w = 320 Factor out w + 8
(w+ 8)(w + 16 – w) = 320 Combine like terms
(w+ 8) × 16 = 320 Divide each side by 16
w + 8 = 20 Subtract 8 from each side
w = 12 ft
l = 12 + 8
l = 20 ft
The garden is 20 ft long by 12 ft wide.
Answer:
12.50 - 3.75 = 8.75
$8.75 / $1.25 * (1/2) (per mile) = 3.5 miles
1. Mile .5 (fee and 1st mile)
$3.75 + $1.25 = $5.00
2. Miles .5 - 3.5 (additional 3 miles)
$1.25 * (3*2) = $7.50
Total: $5.00 + 7.50 = $12.50
