Answer:

<em>Maya needs 33 bags</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call x the number of bags of soil. If each bag contains 1.5 cubic feet, then "x" bags do not contain a volume of:

1.5x.

As a volume of 4.5 cubic feet has been published.

y = 4.5 + 1.5x

We need 54 cubic feet.

Then y = 54

54 =4.5 + 1.5x

Now we must solve the equation for x.

1.5x = 54 -4.5

1.5x = 49.5

x =\frac{49.5}{1.5}\\\\x=33\ bags

The problem here is:  Too many words.

If you boil the problem down to the bare facts, the question is:

             "$210 is 15% of what number ?"

I'm pretty sure you can take it from there,
but here's the rest of it anyway:

                                                $210  =  15% of (March amount)

                                                $210  =  0.15 x (March amount)

Divide each side by  0.15 :     $1400 = March amount .

Check:
1400 + 210 =  1610
1.15 x 1400 = 1610                                      yay!

Can you explain how you would convert 4 m to millimeters?
Andrew [12]
M to millimetres is 3 steps. m > dm > cm > mm. since it is 3 steps down, the comma goes 3 places left. 4 > 0,4 > 0,04 > 0,004. so 4 m is equal to 0,004 mm
