1. She starts with $255.

2. She purchases 8 books for an unknown cost per book, so she spends 8 * (unknown cost per book).

3. She is left with $15. 

Let's set up an equation:

c= \text{ cost per book}

255-8c=15

Now, we solve. First, we'll subtract 255 from each side:

-8c=-240

Now, we'll divide through by -8:

c=30

The cost per book is $30. Let's check it out:

$30/book * 8 books = $240

She started with $255 and spent $240, which leaves her with $15. Exactly what the original question indicated. We're done. (Those are some expensive books.)

zmey [24]

5 days does it take to sell 640 cupcakes.

Given:

A bakery sells 4 dozen cupcakes every 3 hours.

If the bakery is open 8 hours each day.

4 dozen cupcakes = 4*12 cupcakes

= 48 cupcakes

48 cupcakes = 3 hours

divide by 3 on both sides

3hours/3 = 48/3 cupcakes

1 hour = 16 cupcakes

Number of cupcakes for 8 hours = 8 * 16 = 128 cupcakes.

128 cupcakes sells in one day.

To sell 640 cupcakes = 640/128

= 5 days.

Therefore 5 days does it take to sell 640 cupcakes.
