First, you want to find out how many pints are in a gallon, which are 8.
So, 8 x .55 = 4.40
Muriel would save $0.45 by buying 1 gallon instead of multiple pints.
One way to solve this is by changing the mixed numbers to improper functions.
3 1/3 = 10/3
2 2/5 = 12/5
The next step I would take is to find a common denominator.
10/3 = 50/15
12/5 = 36/15
Now we can solve the original equation:
50/15 - 36/15 = 14/15
Since 14/15 is already simplified this is your final answer.
Answer: See below
Step-by-step explanation:
- Both will use the straight edge to make segments and use the compass to take measurements.
- They will draw a line with a straight edge and will find a starting point, then with a compass:
- Annie will take the measurement of the segment and, from the starting point of the line, will put in the other point to obtain the congruent segment.
- But in Jaymie's case, she will need to do a little more work with a compass because to build congruent angles, she will need to make a semi-circle in the original angle and transfer this measurement to the new line to construct the angle.

2x-6+4x=6x-6
Hope this helps!
The numbers are being multiplied by 7
.5 • 7 = 3.5
3.5 • 7 = 24.5
24.5 • 7 = 171.5
