<span>(x + 5 1/2) 0.75= 5/8<span>
Convert 0.75 into a fraction
</span></span><span>(x + 5 1/2) 3/4= 5/8
Use distributive property
3/4x + 5 1/2*3/4 = 5/8
Convert 5 1/2 into improper fraction
3/4x + 11/2*3/4 = 5/8
Multiply
3/4x + 33/8 = 5/8
Subtract 33/8 from both sides
3/4x = 5/8 - 33/8
Subtract the numerators but NOT the denominators
3/4x = -28/8
Divide 3/4 on both sides
x = -28/8 divided by 3/4
Convert the division sign to multiplication while flipping the fraction 3/4 to 4/3
x = -28/8 * 4/3
Multiply
Final Answer: x = -112/24 or -4 16/24 or -4 4/6 or -4 2/3 *All answers are equivalent to each other.</span>

The Apple harvest produced 2,350kg of Apple's. A farmer packs 36 apples in the box. One apple weighs approximately 250 grams how
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of apples produced at the apple harvest is 2,350kg.

1 kg = 1000 grams. Therefore,

2350 kg = 2350 × 1000 = 2350000kg

A farmer packs 36 apples in the box. If one apple weighs approximately 250 grams, the total weight of 36 apples would be

36 × 250 = 9000 grams

Therefore, the number of boxes that are needed to pack the apples would be

2350000/9000 = 261.11

It means that 262 boxes would be needed.

Two integers, a and b have a product of 15. what is the least possible sum of a and b?
Neporo4naja [7]
If they're integers, that means they can't be fractions (such as 15/2 and 2).

So the only couples of integers that, when multiplied, result in 15 are:

1 and 15
5 and 3.

(there are no other possibilities as both 5 and 3 are not divisible further).
The smaller of the two sums (15+1; 5+3) is 5+3=8.

The least possible sum of a and b is 8.
