For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
 x: number of pillowcases
 y: number of sheets
 We now write the system of equations:
 2x + 5y = 40
 x = 2y
 Solving the system we have:
 x = 8.9
 y = 4.4
 Answer:
 
The maximum number of pillowcases she could have purchased is:
 
x = 8 (spent less than $ 40)

Sammy bought 15.3 Liters of milk. She poured the milk equally into 5 bottles. There was 0.35 liters of milk left over. Calculate
Zanzabum

Answer:

The capacity of milk in 1 bottle is 2.99 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

∵ Sammy bought 15.3 liters of milk

∵ She poured the milk equally into 5 bottles

∵ There were 0.35 liters of milk leftover

→ At first, subtract the leftover from the quantity she bought to

   find the capacity of the five bottles

∴ The capacity of the 5 bottles = 15.3 - 0.35

∴ The capacity of the 5 bottles = 14.95 liters

→ To find the capacity of each bottle divide the total capacity by 5

∴ The capacity in one bottle = 14.95 ÷ 5

∴ The capacity in one bottle = 2.99 liters

∴ The capacity of milk in 1 bottle is 2.99 liters
