Picture?? This question is incomplete just get a picture then I can answer it
Your answer is 7.
I subtracted 5 from 12 to find the missing number for KL that is 7.
Therefore, your answer is 7
Oh Foxy, Foxy, how totally debilitated you must be ! Try to relax. Nobody
enjoys a painful brain, and believe me, this problem is not worth it.
Let me put it to you this way: What if the problem said . . .
-- Demarcus has $8 more than his sister.
-- His sister has $4.
-- How much money ' M ' does Demarcus have ?
If your brain didn't hurt, you could quickly solve this right in there.
You would know that Demarcus' money ' M ' = 8 + 4 .
That's <em>almost </em>exactly what the problem <em>does</em> say.
Except it doesn't say he has "$8 more than his sister",
it says he has "at least" that much.
So you know that ' M ' is not exactly = 8 + 4, but that's the <u>least</u> it could be.
The actual amount of ' M ' is <u>more</u> than that.
Surely you can handle it from here, even with half of your brain
tied behind your back.
Take a good hard look at ' A ', and then go lie down.

Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of small hat purchased, y represent the number of medium hat purchased and z represent the number of large hat purchased.
Since a total of 47 hats where purchased, hence:
x + y + z = 47 (1)
Also, he spent a total of $302, hence:
5.5x + 6y + 7z = 302 (2)
He purchases three times as many medium hats as small hats, hence:
y = 3x
-x + 3y = 0 (3)
Represent equations 1, 2 and 3 in matrix form gives:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\5.5&6&7\\-3&1&0\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}47\\302\\0\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\\ \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\5.5&6&7\\-3&1&0\end{array}\right] ^{-1} \left[\begin{array}{c}47\\302\\0\end{array}\right] \\\\\\ \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}6\\18\\23\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%261%261%5C%5C5.5%266%267%5C%5C-3%261%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5C%5Cz%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D47%5C%5C302%5C%5C0%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5C%5Cz%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%261%261%5C%5C5.5%266%267%5C%5C-3%261%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5E%7B-1%7D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D47%5C%5C302%5C%5C0%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5C%5Cz%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D6%5C%5C18%5C%5C23%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Therefore he purchases 6 small hats, 18 medium hats and 23 large hats
