Answer:

(5/24) gallons of gas to mow the side yard

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily solve this proble by applying a rule of three

5/16 gallons of gas  ---------------------------------  for 1 backyard

x  gallons of gas ------------------------------------- 2/3 backyard

x = ((2/3)/1)*(5/16) gallons of gas

x = ((2/3))*(5/16) gallons of gas

x = ((10/48) gallons of gas

x = (5/24) gallons of gas

to fill a coffee mug at a local shop costs $2.50. the shop sells coffee beans foe $12 per pound. each pound makes enough coffee
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

There are a few possible answers so read explanation, but the one I will put up here is:

20.83

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find how much 100 cups of coffee costs in store.

To do this you will multiply 2.50 by 100 and get 250. So now we know 100 cups of coffee in store costs $250 whereas 100 cups at home is $12.

To find how many times greater the price in store is compared to the at home brew, you have to divide 250 by 12 and get 20.8333333....

We don't stop there though, because it asks us to approximate. I am not sure what it would like us to round to, but here are some possible approximations:

  1. 20.83
  2. 20.8
  3. 21

Any of those re reasonable approximations, you choose whichever you think the question wants, or whatever your teacher asks for.

Hope this helps

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 267.what is the largest number
iris [78.8K]
Rather than trial and error, you can do this with an equation.

x + x+1 + x+2 = 267 =>
3x+3 = 267
x = 264/3 = 88

So the numbers are 88+89+90. 90 is the largest number.
