It takes 0.5 gallon of cream to make 1 pound of butter.
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

0.5 pounds of butter.

Explanation

X pounds for 0.25 gallons.

0.5 gallon of cream - 1 pound of butter

0.25 gallons of cream - X pounds of butter

Applying cross multiplication:

0.5X = 0.25

X = 0.25 over 0.5 or 0.25/0.5

X = 0.5

Therefor, you could make 0.5 pounds of butter with 0.25 gallons of cream.

Svetlanka [38]
The answer would be 5 hours and 50 minuets. It would be this because 2230 equals 10:30 count the hours between 1030 and 430 6 hrs then minus 10 min because the last hr isnt a full hour because it doesnt make it to 430.

At the city museum, child admission is $5.20 and adult admission is $8.90 . on friday, 159 tickets were sold for a total sales o
Zinaida [17]
Total tickets sold = 159
Total sales = $1100.60
Child admission = $5.20
Adult admission = $8.90

Assumed all 159 tickets are Child admission tickets
Total sales = 159 x 5.2 = $826.80

Difference in amount = $1100.60 - $826.80 = $273.80
The difference must be contributed by the Adult Admission Tickets, which has a difference of $8.90 - $5.20 = $3.70

$273.80 ÷ $3.70 = 74 adult tickets

159 - 74 = 85 child tickets
