Answer:
not sure.................
Divide by the coefficient of x.
x = 27/47
297/11 = 27
So we have 27 groups of 11 students. If there are 2 chaperones for every 11 students, then we can do:
27x2=54
There are 54 chaperones on the field trip.
2:3
6 ÷ 2 = $3 (cost of 1 pack of butter cookies)
3 x 3 = 9 (cost of 3 packs of butter cookies)
17 - 9 = 8 (cost of 4 packs of chocolate cookies)
8 ÷ 4 = 2 (cost of one pack of chocolate cookies)
