You can use base ten blocks to find 2.16/ 3 by using 7 base ten blocks and 2 base one blocks.
322/14 = 23
322 / 14
14 cannot go into 3, so 14 can go into 32 twice,
32-28 = 4 drop the 2
42. 14 can go into 42 3 times
42-42 = 0
Your answer is 23
Answer: Substitution
Step-by-step explanation: I think that because you have the equations already, you just have to solve for a variable using substitution. Do this by substituting one of the variables with another number. For example, make x=2 in both equations. Now you are free to solve for y and get your answer.
y=-2.5(2)+16
y=11
y=-1.5(2)+12
y=9
You can substitute in any number that makes it easy for you. Also, if you want x, you can substitute y. I'm really, really sorry if that is not helpful, I just told you what I know!
Step-by-step explanation:
A. part 1: $1.49 for 6 pencils
1 pencil would cost $1.49 / 6 = $0.24833(5s.f.) = $0.25 (nearest cent)
part 2: $4.60 for 20 pencils
1 pencil would cost $4.60 / 20 = $0.23
best value: part 2 (20pencil pack)
