PART A:
x = how many 3/16 pound servings are in the bag.
3/16x = 7/8
PART B:
You need to turn these fractions into decimals:
3/16 = 0.1875
7/8 = 0.875
Rewrite the equation:
0.1875x = 0.875
Solve algebraically. Divide both sides by 0.1875.
0.875/0.1875 = 4.67
x = 4.67.
There are 4.67 3/16 pound servings in a bag containing 7/8 pounds of granola.

Answer :

PART A.

Let quantity of servings of granola in the bag = x pounds

\text{Part of the servings of granola in the bag = }\frac{3}{16}\\\\\text{Total quantity of servings of granola to be contained in the bag = }\frac{3}{16}\cdot x\\\\\text{Quantity of granola in the bag to be contained = }\frac{7}{8}

Now, Total quantity of servings of granola to be contained in the bag = Quantity of granola in the bag to be contained

\implies \frac{3}{16}\cdot x=\frac{7}{8}

PART B. Finding the value of the above expression :

\frac{3}{16}\cdot x=\frac{7}{8}\\\\\implies 3x\times 8=16\times 7\\\\\implies 3x=\frac{112}{8}\\\\\implies 3x=14\\\\\implies x=\frac{14}{3}

A hat is originally priced at $28 is on sale for $15% off. What is the total cost of the hat if the tax is 6.75%?
vampirchik [111]
You do 28, which is the original cost, then you take that 15% off to do that you multiply 28×.15 and you get 4.2 and subtract that from original cost and you get 23.8 then to get the cost after tax you do 23.8×.0675 and you get 1.6 then you add that to 23.8 and get 25.4 dollars
