Answer:

3 people

Step-by-step explanation:

$51/$17 = 3 people

- We know to start with $51 dollars because that is the total price of the meal.

- We also know each meal costs $17.

- Next, ask youself what we are trying to find? We are trying to find how many people are eating.

- Therefore to find that we need to take our starting amount $51 divided by $17 because that is the cost of 1 meal.

- $51/$17 = 3 people (whole cost/individual cost = # of people)

- To check this take 3 x 17 = 51 (Now we know it is correct)

- If you would like a further explanation please let me know.

Min Jee wants to build a small patio using either brick or paver stones.
Anvisha [2.4K]
Brick = 3.5 in by 7.5 in and costs $0.59
Paver = 8.4 in by 8.4 in and costs $1.88

The small patio's area = 3430 square inches
The Area of 1 Brick = 26.25 square inches
The Area of 1 Paver = 70.56 square inches

The # of Bricks to complete the Patio will be:

Patio's Area / the Area of 1 Brick = # of Bricks to complete the patio
3430 square inches / 26.25 square inches = 130.67 = 131

Then, multiply the # of Bricks to complete the patio by the amount that 1 brick costs:

131 * $0.59 = $77.29

It will take $77.29 to complete the Patio with bricks. 

The # of Pavers to complete the Patio:

Patio's Area / the Area of 1 Paver =  # of Pavers to complete the Patio
3430 square inches / 70.56 square inches = 48.6 = 49

Then, multiply the # of Pavers to complete the patio by the amount that 1 Paver costs:

49 * $1.88 = $92.12

Cost of Bricks to complete Patio = $77.29
Cost of Pavers to complete Patio = $92.12

To conclude, Bricks would cost less by $14.83.
