Answer:
The cook made 7 pints
Step-by-step explanation:
Just minus the half pints
First way is create an equation like this:
and calculating it.
Second way is to find 37% of each number and then add it
+
In both cases the result is 10.829
Simplifying
4x + -3y = 12
Solving
4x + -3y = 12
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '3y' to each side of the equation.
4x + -3y + 3y = 12 + 3y
Combine like terms: -3y + 3y = 0
4x + 0 = 12 + 3y
4x = 12 + 3y
Divide each side by '4'.
x = 3 + 0.75y
Simplifying
x = 3 + 0.75y
N x 100 = n%
An example:
<span>12 is 20% of 60. In order to get 12 percent of 60, all you need to do is to divide 12 with 60. To get the percent means to get the parts of 100. To get it in the form of percent, just multiply the quotient by 100. 12/60=.2 x 100 = 20% .</span>
