Question #25:
One way to solve this is by multiplying the number of packages per serving by the number of guests.
1/4 * 16 = 4 packages to serve 16 guests. This means he doesn't have enough.
A second way to solve this is by diving the number of packages by the number of packages it takes to make on serving.
3 1/2 ÷ 1/4 = 14 guests he can serve. This means he doesn't have enough.
Question #26:
First, find common denominators.
2/3 = 8/12
1/4 = 3/12
Second, subtract.
8/12 - 3/12 = 5/12
Therefore, the tank is 5/12 full at the end of the trip.
Question #27:
1/2 is cut off then 1/3 is cut off. This means 3/6 was cut off to bundle newspapers, then 1/6 was cut off to make parcel. In all, 4/6 was cut off the original string. Afterwards, 2/6 was left over. So, just multiply; 2 * 3 = 6.
Therefore, the original string was as a total of 6 meters.
Best of Luck!
3 Metres; because for each 100 centimetres there is one metre. With centi- being the prefix for 10^-2 in the metric system.
X=price of one jumbo popcorn
y=price of one chocolate chip cookies
$5.00=$5.00(100 cts / $)=500 cts
$6.00=$6.00(100 cts / $)=600 cts
We suggest this system of equations:
x+2y=500
x+4y=600
we solve this system of equations by reduction method.
-(x+2y=500)
x+4y=600
----------------------
2y=100 ⇒ y=100/2=50
x+2y=500
x+2(50)=500
x+100=500
x=500-100
x=400
solution: one chocolate chip cookie cost 50 cts.
Answer:
.208333... (as a fraction 5/24)
Step-by-step explanation:
5 divided by 8 = 0.625
.625 divided by 3 = .208333...
5/24
5*1 / 8*3 = 5/24. Therefore, 5/8 divided by 3 is equal to 5/24. In math you can flip the second denominator and numerator to multiply instead of dividing.
Yes. there is a fixed cost and variable cost.
