Answer: 8 batches
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the number of batches she made, we can just use proportion to solve it. But first, we need to convert 5 1/3 to improper fraction
5 1/3 = 16/3
Then we can now use the proportion to solve
2/3 cups = 1 batch
16/3 cups = x (note:5 1/3=16/3)
cross multiply
2/3 × x = 16 /3
2x/ 3 = 16/3
we need to make x the subject of the formula, to do that we will multiply each side of the equation by 3/2
2/3 × 3/2 x = 16/3 × 3/2
6x /6 = 48 / 6
x = 8
Therefore she made 8 batches of cookies.
Answer: The age of the twins is 10 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose the age of older sister be x
Let the age of twins sister be x-9, as they are born after 9 years.
Product of their ages be
Sum of their ages will be
According to question,
So, Age of older sister will be 19 years.
Age of the twins will be
Hence, the age of the twins is 10 years.
3 nickles plus 8 pennies
(3x5)+(8x1) = 15 + 8 = 23
= 23¢
The answer is 95.
First: find the area if the whole rectangle. To do so you would multiply lxw (10x12)
Second: you would find the area of the square. Squares have perfect sides so you would multiply 5x5.
Last: take the sums of both equations. So the it would be 120-25=95.
