The question is to find out how many times 1/4 is equal to 1 1/2
First lets convert the total:
1 1/2 = 2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2
now we need to find out a number that multiplied by 1/4 gives 3/2, that is an equation:
(1/4)x = 3/2
and solving for x:
x = (3/2)*4
x = 12/2
x = 6
therefore they will take 6 days to repave the whole street
Hello! So, the toy company makes blocks that cost $5 to make. Then, they mark it up by 300%, which is marking the price up by 4. 100% markup is doubling the price, 200% is tripling the price, and 300% marks the price up by 4. Then, the blocks would cost $20. After that, the price would be marked up by 150%, so that’s 2.5 times the price of the original. When you do $20 by 2.5, then the blocks cost $50. The local toy store will mark the block up by 200%, which as said before, is tripling the price. Then, you do 50 * 3, and then the price of the blocks is $150. Then, it gets marked off by 30% and 10% of 150 is 15, so 30% off 150 is 45. When you do 150 - 45, the difference is $105. Then, you take off an additional 15%, But you would still have to pay 85% of the original price. You would do 105 * 0.85, and then you would get $89.25 for the blocks. But that’s not all. You have to pay 8% sales tax for the blocks. You can find the tax by doing 89.25 * 0.08 and then adding the prices together. Or, you can do 89.25 * 1.08 to find the total price. Either way, the product should be 96.39. The total price you paid for the blocks is $96.39.
Hey there! :)
Answer:
$7.39 per pair of socks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the price per pair of socks by dividing the total price by the number of socks:
36.95 ÷ 5 = $7.39 per pair of socks.
The question you asked uses the concept of division, something that a bit tricky at first but gets easier as you master it!
So first let’s write and equation for your problem:
Let x = the amount of calories she burns each hour.
So we already know that Vivi was drumming for 3 hours, that she burned 756 calories, and that she burned the same amount of calories each hour.
Since she burned 756 calories in total, we know that the equation will have to equal 756:
= 756
We also know that the answer will be 3(hours) times x(the amount of calories), so now we just plug it into the equation:
3x = 756
To find what ‘x’ equals we have to divide both side by 3:
3x/3 = 756/3
Now all we have to do is simplify and you have your answer!
x = 252
And there you have it, Vivi burned 25 calories per hour!
Hope this helps! :)
