Saira weights 25 pounds more than umbar . If together they weight 205 pounds. What is the weight of saira

1 answer:

6 0

To solve this, you can create an equation. Say the weight of Umbar is x, then Saira weighs x+25. Together they weigh 205. So, you get the equation

x+x+25=205

Then solve for x.

2x+25=205
2x=180
x=90

Then to find Saira's weight, add 25 to Umbar's weight.

90+25=115.

Carlota has 3/4 ton of mulch she is going to divide evenly among 5 flower beds. How much mulch will each flower bed contain? Ple

Murljashka [212]

The first thing to do is to turn 5 into a fraction.
5 = 5/1

Now it is just a simple fractional division question:
3/4 / 5/1

With fractional division, all you do is switch around the fraction that is on the right and turn the divide sign into a multiplication sign:
3/4 X 1/5

Now you simply multiply the numerators together, and the denominators together:
3 X 1 = 3
4 X 5 = 20

3/20.

Each flower bed will contain 3/20 of a ton of mulch.
