Remark

The easy way to do this is to change 5/8 to a decimal and worr y about changing it back to a fraction if you need to.

15 5/8 = 15.625 The easy way to find 5/8 is to use your calculator. 5 ÷ 8 = on most calculators.

You want 12 of these

1 leg is 15.625 inches long.

12 legs = x

1/12 = 15.625 / x Cross multiply

x = 12 * 15.625

x = 187.5 inches

Just how many feet is that? Divide by 12 to get the number of feet 187.5 / 12 =

15.625 feet.

Usually 2 by 4s are 8 or 12 feet long. For 8 feet you will need 2 of them and for 12 feet unfortunately you will need two as well.

On a certain hot​ summer's day, 477 people used the public swimming pool. The daily prices are 1.50 for children and 2.25 for ad
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

212 children, and 265 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of children and adults, we can set up a systems of equations.

x= number of children

y= number of adults

Equation 1: Price

1.50x+2.25y=914.25

Equation 2: Total number of people

x+y=477

Now, let's solve the equation using substitution.

Rearrange the second equation to solve for one variable.

x+y=477

x=477-y

Now plug x equals into the first equation, and solve for y.

1.50x+2.25y=914.25

1.50(477-y)+2.25y=914.25

715.5-1.50y+2.25y=914.25

715.5+0.75y=914.25

0.75y=198.75

y=265

We just solved for the number of adults. Now let's plug y equals into the second equation to find the number of children.

x+y=477

x+265=477

x=212

Will bought 3 college textbooks. One cost 32$, one cost 45$, and one cost 39$. What is the average price of his book?
Damm [24]

Answer:

The average of all textbooks is $38.60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's why to calculate average we do sum of all numbers divided by the number of numbers, for example if we average 2 and 3, we do 2+3 divided by 2. Which happens to be 2.5. Now for this problem we divide the sum by 3.

Therefore getting our answer of $38.60.
