2.54 cm in 1 inch......how many inches in 51.78 cm...

51.78 / 2.54 = 20.4 inches <==

or this way...
2.54 / 1 = 51.78 / x....2.54 cm to 1 in = 51.78 cm to x inches
cross multiply
(2.54)(x) = 51.78)(1)
2.54x = 51.78
x = 51.78 / 2.54
x = 20.4 inches <==

Maria had planned to walk 10 1/8 miles on wednesday, if she walked 7 2/8 miles in the morning how far would she need to walk in

Ugo [173]

Answer:

Distance Maria had to walk in the afternoon is $2\frac{7}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets take that Maria walked $x$ miles in the afternoon.

Distance walked in the morning + distance walked in the afternoon = $10\frac{1}{8}$

⇒ $7\frac{2}{8} +x=10\frac{1}{8}$

$\frac{58}{8} +\frac{8x}{8} =\frac{81}{8}$

$\frac{58+8x}{8} =\frac{81}{8}$

$58+8x=81$

$8x=81-58\\$

$8x=23$

$x=\frac{23}{8}$

$x=2\frac{7}{8}$

Albert bought some fish at a grocery store at $2 per pound for salmon and $4 per pound for catfish. He spent a total of $12 on s

Gemiola [76]

Albert bought 2 pounds of catfish and 2 pounds of salmon

Let c represent the amount of catfish in pounds and s represent the amount of salmon in pounds.

He spent a total of $12 on salmon and catfish and bought a total of 4 pounds. Hence:

c + s = 4 (1)

4c + 2s = 12 (2)

Solving equations 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

c = 2, s = 2

Albert bought 2 pounds of catfish and 2 pounds of salmon

David's money is three times Siti's money. Farid has RM 150 less than Siti. The total amount of their money is RM 2 000. How muc

mart [117]

Answer:

Siti's money = RM 430

David = RM 1,290

Farid = RM 280

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Siti's money = x

David = 3x

Farid = x - 150

Total of their money = RM 2 000

x + 3x + (x - 150) = 2000

4x + x - 150 = 2000

5x = 2000 + 150

5x = 2,150

x = 2,150/5

x = RM 430

Siti's money = x

= RM 430

David = 3x

= 3(430)

= RM 1,290

Farid = x - 150

= 430 - 150

= RM 280

Gabriela bought a new pair of sunglasses when they were having a 30% off sale if the regular price of the glasses was 72% how mu

serg [7]

Answer is: 50.4%. You have to take 30% off of 72%. Easiest way is to find 10% of 72 (7.2) and multiply that by 3 (=21.6). Then minus this off the original price (72 - 21.6 = 50.4)
