Your friend baked 60% so (60/100) x 400 = 240

400 - 240 = 160

160 cupcakes

If your friend baked 60% of 400 total, that means that the remaining amount of cupcakes that you baked is 100% – 60% = 40%. So, we must find 40% of 400

To do this, first we must convert 40% into decimal form. We can do this by dividing it by 100:    40 ÷ 100 = 0.4

Then, "of" usually means multiplication. In this case, it does, so to find 40% of 400, we must calculate 0.4 • 400

0.4 • 400 = 160, so you baked 160 cupcakes

Josiah traveled 79.5 miles on 3 gallons of gasoline. At this rate, how many gallons of gasoline would he need to travel 265 mile
BigorU [14]
Josiah would need 10 gallons to travel 265 miles.

First we divide 79.5 by 3 to find out how many gallons are needed for one mile.

79.5/3=26.5

For one mile we need 26.5 gallons of gas.

Now we will divide 265 by 26.5 to find the answer to the problem.

265/26.5=10

Josiah will need 10 gallons of gas to travel 265 miles

the length of a rectangle is 6 meters less than twice the width. The area of the rectangle is 140m². Find the dimensions of the
AveGali [126]

Answer:

Here's what we know:

A = Lw (Area is length times width)

L = 2w + 6 (length is twice the width plus 6)

A = 140 (Area is 140 m2)

Plug in the variable values:

140 = w(2w + 6)

Distribute:

140 = 2w2 + 6w

Subtract 140:

2w2 + 6w - 140 = 0

Factor out a 2:

2(w2 + 3w - 70) = 0

Divide both sides by 2:

w2 + 3w - 70 = 0

(w + m)(w - n)

When we factor out the quadratic, we know it's going to be a +/- situation because the c value in the quadratic is negative, and the two numbers are going to be three away, the plus next to the 3 meaning that the larger number is going to be positive:

(w + 10)(w - 7) = 0

w = -10, 7

We can't have a negative length, so we can toss out the -10, leaving us with w = 7 meters.

L = 2 * 7 + 6

L = 14 + 6

L = 20

Check:

140 = 20 * 7

140 = 140
