What is p/20=(p-4)/5?

Mathematics
1 answer:
liq [111]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

p = \frac{16}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{p}{20} = \frac{p-4}{5} ( cross- multiply )

20(p - 4) = 5p ← distribute left side

20p - 80 = 5p ( subtract 5p from both sides )

15p - 80 = 0 ( add 80 to both sides )

15p = 80 ( divide both sides by 15 )

p = \frac{80}{15} = \frac{16}{3}

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

1.72973 oz/serving.  Perhaps round to 1.73 oz, although there is only 1 sig fig in "4-pound bag."  But the problem states "exactly."

Step-by-step explanation:

We want oz/serving, so let's convert the pounds of rice to total ounces of rice:

We are told that 16 oz = 1 pound.  Make that a conversion factor:  (16 oz/1 pound)

(4 pounds)*((16 oz/1 pound) = 64 ounces

We are told that 4 pounds (64 ounces) makes 37 servings.  So:

(64 ounces)/(37 servings) = 1.72973 oz/serving
