Answer:
1.65
Step-by-step explanation:
you said one pound is $4.40
and that how much is 3/8 of a pound
so 3/8 multiplied by 4.40
Answer:
12.42 = 1242 / 100;
4.6 = 46 / 10;
12.42 ÷ 4.6 = (1242 / 100) ÷ (46 / 10 ) = (1242 / 100) x (10 / 46 ) = ( 1242 / 46 ) x ( 100 / 10 ) = 27 x 10 = 270;

Answer:
$2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks for the total cost of a notebook and pen together. We don't need to find their individual costs in order to answer the question.
Sometimes we get bored solving systems of equations in the usual ways. For this question, let's try this.
The first equation has one more notebook than pens. The second equation has 4 more notebooks than pens. If we subtract 4 times the first equation from the second, we should have equal numbers of notebooks and pens.
(8n +4p) -4(3n +2p) = (16.00) -4(6.50)
-4n -4p = -10.00 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
n + p = -10.00/-4 = 2.50 . . . . divide by the coefficient of (n+p)
The total cost for one notebook and one pen is $2.50.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The first equation has 1 more notebook than 2 (n+p) combinations, telling us that a notebook costs $6.50 -2(2.50) = $1.50. Then the pen is $2.50 -1.50 = $1.00.
One could solve for the costs of a notebook (n) and a pen (p) individually, then add them together to answer the question. We judge that to be more work.
46! Because 5 times 3 is 15 and the two big rectangles are equal, that’s 15+15. (30) 5x1 is 5 and THERES two equal things like that so 5+5 (10). 3x1 is 3 and THERES also two equal things so add 3+3. (6) add 30+10+6 which makes 46! :)
