Answer:
420
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of students in Janelle’s group.
If Janelle brings 3 markers for each person in her group, then she brings 3x markers for x students. You also know that she brings <span>5 extra markers for everyone to share. Thus, the total amount of markers she brings is 3x+5.
</span>
If Janelle brings in 23 markers in all, then the equation <span><span>3x+5=23 </span> represaents the mathematical model. </span>
3x=23-5,3x=18,x=6
Answer: there are 6 students in Janelle's group.
Greetings!
The best way to compare fractions is to find the LCM (The Lowest Common Denominator) of each of the fractions. This can be done simply by listing the multiples of the denominators.
Multiples:
3: 3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27...210,213
10:10,20,30,40,60,70,80...210,220
6: 6,12,18,24,30,36,42,48...210,216
7: 7,14,21,28,35,42,49...210,217
The LCM is 210:
3*70=210
10*21=210
6*35=210
7*30=210
Now, we must do what we do the denominators to the numerators:
1*70=70
70/210
2*21=42
42/210
1*35=35
=35/210
2*30=60
=60/210
The fraction with the largest numerator has the greatest value; In this case it 1/3 or 70/210.
Hope this helps.

Answer:
Joy definitely does have enough soup for 22 people.
Step-by-step explanation:
Upper Bound: 285ml turn it to 0.285 L 10÷2=5
280ml :
Lower Bound: 275ml turn it to 0.275 L
Upper Bound: 6.75 L 0.5÷2=0.25
6.5 Litters :
Lower Bound:6.25 L
6.75÷0.275=24.54 or 25
6.25÷0.285=21.92 or 22
