Mike has 10 and a half cookies (10.5). Mike wants to share these cookies with 5 friends. How many cookies does each friend get. The answer is 2.1 one (Or 2 and 1 crumb I guess lol). You place the decimal point where ever it was originally so you would place it after the 2 and before the one. It's been a while since I've done one of these problems so sorry if I'm a little rusty.
The first 3 choices are not outliers, so the answer is D.
Answer:
The first option.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to effectively simplify, you need to divide the side with the variable by a number that is less than or equal to the number. 3 goes into 36 twelve times.
3g = 36.
3g/3 = g
36/3 = 12
g = 12 when divided by 3.
The total of 2 buckets of popcorn and 3 boxes of candy would be $23.25
To answer this question you need to form a set of simultaneous equations and solve them. We can do this by saying that a bucket of popcorn = P, and a box of candy = C. Then we can say:
4P + 6C = 46.50
P + C = 9.75
There are then two possible ways to solve; you can either say that C = 9.75 - P using the second equation and then substitute it into the first, or you can multiply the second equation by either 4 or 6 to cancel out P or C.
I’m going to multiply the second equation by 4:
4P + 4C = 39
Now we can subtract this for, the first equation:
4P + 6C = 46.50
4P + 4C = 39
2C = 7.50
C = 3.75
Now we can substitute this value of C into one of the equations to find P:
P + C = 9.75
P + 3.75 = 9.75
P = 6
And now to answer the question, you just multiply P by 2 and C by 3 and add them together, which gives you $23.25
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)
We have a ratio of 3 hours / 7.5 miles
We want to know how many miles he can walk in 1 hour so, divide both sides by 3 -> 1 hour / 2.5 miles
He is walking at 2.5 mph
