Two cheaper books = x
more expensive = 1.5x
so, 2.5x=150
150/2.5=x=60
therefore the more expensive book = 90

Connor is going to see a movie and is taking his 4 kids. Each movie ticket costs $13 and there are an assortment of snacks avail
EleoNora [17]

If Connor buys 3 snacks at 3 dollars each for himself and his 3 children, the net cost (including movie tickets) would be 88 dollars.

If he buys x amount of snacks, his cost will be determined by C=52+3x or C=52+3*x (both are equivalent, but not everyone knows every way to represent multiplication)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost of the snacks:

Cost = Price*NumberOfSnacks, or C=p*n, or C=pn

To find the unit cost of the snack, find the price, the p value, which is 3 dollars.

Then, find the total number of snacks that will be bought. Since each person receives an equal number of snacks, 3 per person, and there are 4 people (himself and his 3 children), we can multiply 3*4 to find the n value, which is now known to be 12.

C=3*12=36. Add to the 13 dollar per person charge for tickets (52 dollars for 4 people), and you get 88 dollars.

To find the cost if he buys x amount of snacks for himself and his 3 children (assumed to be "everyone"), all costs but the n value are to be the same, creating this equation:

C=52+3x

In this context, 52 is the cost of movie tickets, 3 is the cost of the snacks, and x is the total number of snacks bought. C represents total cost.

How do you change 0.16666 in a fraction
Natasha_Volkova [10]
Here's how to convert 0.16666 to a fraction...

There is not much that can be done to figure out how to write 0.16666 as a fraction, except to literally use what the decimal portion of your number, the .16666, means.

Since there are 5 digits in 16666, the very last digit is the "100000th" decimal place.

So we can just say that .16666 is the same as 16666/100000.

The fraction 16666/100000 is not reduced to lowest terms. We can reduce this fraction to lowest
terms by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.

Why divide by 2? 2 is the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD)
or Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the numbers 16666 and 100000.
So, this fraction reduced to lowest terms is 8333/50000

So your final answer is: 0.16666 can be written as the fraction 8333/50000
