Instead of adding more fraction strips you would take some away to get a smaller number.
One dozen eggs is 48 eggs. Altogether that costs 40 dollars. If six of the eggs were broken then the money wasted would be 5 dollars.
The reason that it is 5 dollars is becuase it takes 10 to buy 12 eggs, and half of that is 6. So divide both 12 and 10 (separately) and you get 5 dollars for 6 eggs.
To get the percent you must divide 5 by 40.
The answer comes out to about 12.5% or 0.125.
So in the end, 12.5% of the money was wasted due to the broken eggs.

Given:
Cost of 1 digital song = $1.05
Cost of 2 digital song = $2.10
Cost of 5 digital song = $5.25
To find:
The equation and the cost of 25 downloaded digital songs.
Solution:
Let us take two points (1, 1.05) and (2, 2.10).
Here 
Slope:
m = 1.05
Using point-slope formula:
Add 1.05 on both sides, we get
Here x is the independent variable and c is the dependent variable.
So that substitute x = n and y = c.
The equation is c = 1.05 n.
Substitute n = 25 in the equation.
The cost of 25 songs is $26.25.
All you have to do is plug in 3
Answer: Yes, because remember there is 2 lengths and widths so x times 2 is 2x and x - 5 times 2 is 2x - 10, so 2x + 2x -10 = 4x -10, so it would be a reasonable answer.
Step-by-step explanation: Hope this helps! :)
