If I read correctly, 2456 pennies needs to be divided simply by 3 then rounded to the nearest hundredth. So you would do 2456/3 3 goes into 24 how many times? Then 3 goes into 5 how many times, then continue the pattern. Once you've gotten a decimal to the thousandth, round the number to the hundredth and there you go
Answer:
$196
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets assume,
cost of a belt = 'x'
cost of a pair of pants = 'y'
Now, According to the question;
- x + y = 490;
- cost of a bag = twice the cost of belt = 2x;
- cost of a pair of pants = twice the cost of bag
⇒ y = 2×2x ⇔ 4x
hence, by subtituting the values in equation' we get;
⇒ x + 4x = 490
⇒ 5x = 490
⇒ x = 98
So, the difference between the cost of the pair of pants and the bag ;
⇒ y - 2x
⇒ 4x - 2x
⇒ 2x = 2×98 = 196.
Answer:
d> -3/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
25 cent stamps = 13 and 29 cent stamps = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 25 cent stamps and y = 29 cent stamps
x + y = 28......x = 28 - y
0.25x + 0.29y = 7.60
0.25(28 - y) + 0.29y = 7.60
7 - 0.25y + 0.29y = 7.60
-0.25y + 0.29y = 7.60 - 7
0.04y = 0.60
y = 0.60 / 0.04
y = 15 <===== 29 cent stamps
x + y = 28
x + 15 = 28
x = 28 - 15
x = 13 <===== 25 cent stamps
lets check it...
0.25x + 0.29y = 7.60
0.25(13) + 0.29(15) = 7.60
3.25 + 4.35 = 7.60
7.60 = 7.60 (correct..it checks out)
