Answer:
4 - pound bag of pears for $14.08
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out which is the better deal, we have to simplify it.
By dividing $14.08 by 4, this gives us the amount of $ each pound costs, which is $3.52.
Now let's find out the amount of $ each pound costs for the 94- ounce bag of pears for $22.56.
First, we need to convert from ounces (oz) to pounds (lbs).
There are 16 ounces in one pound, and we have 94 ounces. So, 94/16 = 5.875 pounds. So there are 5.875 lbs in the $22.56 bag. Now we need to find the amount of $ each pound costs. So we divide $22.56 by 5.875 and we get $3.84.
$3.52 < $3.84 (this is the amount of money each pound of pears cost for each bag). The first bag is cheaper per pound, so they should buy the first one (which is the 4 pound bag btw).
Answer:
The youngest child will receive $2000
Step-by-step explanation:
A father decided to give 25% of his monthly income to his three children as their monthly allowance.
The eldest child got 45% of the allowance and the youngest got 20%. This means that the second child got:
100 - (45 + 20) = 100 - 65 = 35%
The second child received $3500.
Let the 25% of his monthly income be x.
Hence:
35% of x = 3500
=>
x = $10000
The amount the man shared among his children is $10000.
Hence, the youngest child (20%) will receive:
20% of $10000
= $2000
The youngest child will receive $2000.
4(5)=20
5(5)=25
