Answer:
I don’t get most of it, but I believe “doubles” means two of the same number added together. For example, 9+9 is a double. I think “doubles +1” means a double and add one. For example, 6+6+1. If I were your sister, I would write “9+9 = 18” for doubles and “6+6+1 = 13” for doubles +1.
I hope I helped!
The sum of 3/5 and 1/10 is 7/10.
So, let's look at the problem once again.
8%, or 8/100 of the bag were green jelly beans.
Let's see what we can do to find out a number of other jelly beans, not including the green ones.
We know that 92% of jelly-beans are not green.
92% is 11.5 times more than 8%
(92/8)
24 (or 8%) times 11.5 = 276
276 - number of jelly beans that are not green.
276 plus 24 = 300.
Answer: 300 jelly beans were in one bag.
20( -1.5r + 0.75)
Multiply everything by 20
= -30r + 15
