49 more than the quotient of an unknown number and 12 is 53. What is the value of the unknown number?

1 answer:

4 0

Unknown = x

the quotient of x and 12 is x/12 than 49 more than that is 53,
(x/12)+49=53, now use basic math and solve

-49 from both side,
x/12=4

*12 to both side,
x=48

therefore the unknown number is 48

Show your work. What is 93 divided by 3 using repeated subtraction.

tamaranim1 [39]

To use repeated subtraction, you could keep subtracting 3 until you reach 0.
So, we can do
93-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3=0
This has 31 -3s,
So 91/3 is 31.

Mary used Delicious (d) and Golden Delicious (g) apples to make homemade applesauce. Delicious apples are $0.75 each and Golden

Answer:

Mary bought 9 Golden Delicious apples

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved by setting up a system of equations. Based on the information given, the equations would be set up as follows.

$.75d+1.25g=21.00\\d+g=22$

I prefer to solve using substitution, but elimination can be used as well

$.75d+1.25g=21.00\\g=22-d$

We can now plug in this g value to the first equation

$.75d + 1.25 (22-d)=21.00\\.75d + 27.5-1.25d=21\\27.5-0.5d=21\\-.5d=-6.5\\d=13$

This means mary bought 13 delicious apples. She bought 22 apples in total, so the total number minus the amount of delicious apples will give us the amount of golden delicious apples.

22 - 13 = g

9 = g
