Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, we would multiply by the reciprocal of the portion Jada has read, and multiply that number to 75.
The reciprocal means the the value, but flipped, so
will become
.
Now we do 75 times
/

So, there are 125 total pages in the book.
<em><u>#teamtrees #PAW (Plant And Water)</u></em>
Answer:
Length: 7
Width: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can create a system of equations for this problem, where
is the width and
is the length.
The perimeter of a rectangle is twice its length added to twice its width.

The length is 3 more than the width:

We can now substitute in
as
in the equation
.

Distribute the first terms:

Combine like terms:

Subtract 6 from both sides:

Divide both sides by 4:

Now we know that w = 4. We can now substitute this inside an equation to find
.
