Answer:
3 7/50
Step-by-step explanation:
so you need them to become common denominators
a common multiple they both have would be is 77
6/7 becomes 66/77 and 3/11 becomes 21/77
now we divide
keep the 66/77 as is and flip 21/77 (keep, change, flip)
so now our equation looks like this: 66/77 x 77/21
and your answer is 3.14
but as a fraction it is 157/50 and to simplified it would be 3 7/50 (mixed fraction)
When you add them together you get 238.
Here you are giving only the amount they want to raise (namely profit times number of magazines sold), and here you are also giving Money they want to raise... So clarifying, the money they want to raise, should include the money they will spend on buying the magazines (there is no statement saying they found them, or were given the magazines, so a cost should be involved)
Now if they are only making the count of "Field trip costs X amount of money, and given we have to make a profit of $5.5, How many must we sell?" then the equation should be n=X/5.5
Should the story be, how much money must they raise to have a profit of 5.5 on each magazine and still have enough for the field trip, then you have a different equation which varies only in adding the cost of each magazine, either case, M should be defined not as money they need to raise (cause here they will be short on their goal) but Money they must earn. And again, you should rewrite your equation to be:
M=Amount they must raise
C=Cost per magazine
n=Number of magazines
p=profit $5.5 per magazine
C+p=M/n
And rewriting the previous they should make:
n(C+p)=M -----> n(C+5.5)=M <span>m/n = 5.50 </span>
<span>m/n x n = 5.50 x n //// multiply each side by n </span>
<span>m = 5.5n</span>
Answer:
9 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
A square has 4 equal sides, this means the 2 sides we will multiply to get the area are going to be the same. Since it says 81 yards squared and the shape is a square, we can do the square root of 81 which is 9.
