769$ rounded to nearest hundred = 800$
359$ rounded to nearest hundred = 400$
309$ rounded to nearest hundred = 300$

800$ + 400$ + 300$ = 1500$

#5 Antonio and Abby had the same nimber of paperclips. After Antonio gave 30 paperclips to Abby, Abby had twice as many papercli

Kay [80]

Answer:

#5: 180 paperclips in total.

#6: 126 stamps in total.

#7: Elena should give Lucy 15 colored pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

This explanation solves each question by setting a single unknown, $x$ .

<h3>#5</h3>

Let $x$ the initial number of paperclips of Antonio. That should also be the number of Abby's paperclips.

Initially:

Antonio: $x$ paperclips;
Abby: $x$ paperclips.

Antonio gives $30$ paperclips to Abby. After that,

Antonio: $(x - 30)$ paperclips;
Abby: $x + 30$ paperclips.

Abby now possess twice as many paperclips as Antonio does. In other words,

$2(x - 30) = x + 30$ .

By the distributive property:

$2x - 60 = x + 30$ .

Substract $x - 60$ from both sides

$x = 30 - (-60) = 90$ .

Both Antonio and Abby initially possess 90 paperclips. That's 180 in total.

<h3>#6</h3>

Similarly, let $x$ be the number of Emily's stamps. That should be the same as the number of Jasmine's stamps.

Initially:

Emily: $x$ stamps;
Jasmine: $x$ stamps.

After Emily gives $42$ stamps to Jasmine:

Emily: $x-42$ stamps;
Jasmine: $x+42$ stamps.

Jasmine now possesses twice as many stamps as Emily does. In other words,

$2(x-42) = x+42$ .

$x = 42 + 2\times 42 = 126$ .

Jasmine used to possess 126 stamps. Now she possesses $126 + 42 = 168$ stamps after receiving $42$ stamps from Emily.

<h3>#7</h3>

Let the number of pencils that Elena needs to give to Lucy be $x$ .

Initially:

Elena: 60 pencils;
Lucy: 26 pencils.

After Elena gives $x$ pencils to Lucy:

Elena: $60 - x$ pencils;
Lucy: $26 + x$ pencils.

Elena should now possess four more pencils than Lucy does. In other words,

$\underbrace{60 - x}_{\text{Elena's}} = \underbrace{(26 + x)}_{\text{Lucy's}} +4$ .

$2x = 30$ .

$x = 15$ .

24 is 31.25% of what number? Prove your answer in the show your workbox.

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

76.8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We assume, that the number 31.25 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 100% equals 31.25, so we can write it down as 100%=31.25.

4. We know, that x% equals 24 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=24.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 100%=31.25

2) x%=24

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

100%/x%=31.25/24

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 24 is what percent of 31.25

100%/x%=31.25/24

(100/x)*x=(31.25/24)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

100=1.3020833333333*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3020833333333) to get x

100/1.3020833333333=x

76.8=x

x=76.8

now we have:

24 is 76.8% of 31.25
