The 1st one is the right answer
Answer:
63 sandwiches
Step-by-step explanation:
Pete and his friend Danny volunteered to bring sandwiches for lunch at a homeless shelter
They brought 7 loaves of bread
Each loaves have 18 slices
They used 2 slices each to make the sandwich
The first step is to calculate the total number of slices
Sinces 7 loaves of bread are used and each of them contain 18 slices then, the total number of slices can be calculated as follows
= 7 ×18
= 126 slices
Therefore since 2 slices of bread is used to make one sandwich then, the number of sandwiches that was made can be calculated as follows
= 126/2
= 63
Hence 63 sandwiches were made for the shelter
R = recycling and reuse industry jobs
w = waste management jobs
we know, those two jobs combined are 1,275,000
or
r + w = 1,275,000
we also know that, whatever the "w" jobs are, are really less than "r"
jobs by 1,025,000
"r" has 1,025,000 more than "w"
or
r = w + 1,025,000
or
r-w = 1,025,000
so... there, just solve by elimination, simple, notice the "w",
is just waiting to be eliminated :)
