12.) First find the rate of miles/hour that the Morales family drove: 312 miles/6 hours = 52 miles/hour. To find how far they travel in 8 hours, multiply that rate by 8. 52 x 8 = 416. If they drive for 8 hours, they will travel 416 miles.
Answer:
55
Step-by-step explanation:
75+50=125
180-125=55
He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.
Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.
To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.
To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.
Each package contained 12 pencils.
Hope this helps
