She need 2/5 lbs for each 15 members...

2/5 * 15 = 30/5 = 6 lbs

so she needs 6 lbs...and since the trail mix is sold in 1 lb bags, she need 6 bags

Okay. so we need 15 2/5 pound bags. We'll calculate how many pounds that actually comes to. Our problem is 15x2/5. Using cross simplification, our problem becomes 3x2. 3x2=6. We need 6 pounds. That means that we must have 6 1-pound bags to fit with no leftovers.

Identify the law illustrated by: 5n x 1 is the same as 5n
tangare [24]

<u><em>The law illustrated is Distributive Law</em></u>

This question is under a topic called algebra laws.

The laws are;

- Commutative law; This implies that when we are to add or multiply numbers, the order of addition or multiplication doesn't matter as we will still get same result.

- Associative law; This implies that if we want to add more than 2 numbers, if we decide to add the first 2 before adding the third one, we will still get the same result as if we added the second one to the third one before adding to the first one. This law also applies to multiplication.

- Distributive law; This implies that when two numbers are multiplied to produce a result, both numbers are factors of the result.

We are told in the question that ; 5n x 1 = 5n

This means that 5n and 1 are factors of 5n and this corresponds to distributive law

Ritz can eat 8 apples in 15 minutes. How long does it take Ritz to eat 16 apples at the same rate?
natka813 [3]
The rate Ritz can eat apples is 8/15 apples per minute.

Set the rate (which is measured apples / minutes) equal to 16 apples / t minutes.

(8/15) = (16/t)

Cross multiply.

16*15 = 8t

t = 20

The answer is 30 minutes. You could solve the problem with basic reasoning as well. 16 is twice the number of apples as 8, so the time it takes to eat them will be double 15 minutes.
