Answer:

49

Step-by-step explanation:

n is 3/7 of total fruit

n=21 apples

Here they are just telling us that the apples make up a total of 3/7 percent of the total fruit in the box. So to find the total amount of fruit from this information we just simply take the n number of apples and divide that by the percent that it represents. So basically just this;

n=21 and (n)/(3/7)=total fruit

(21)/(3/7)=21*7/3=147/3=49 total fruit and 21apples make up (3/7)% of the total fruit in the box.

Hope this helped some. Any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks!

Jon caught four fish that weighed a total of 252 pounds.The kingfish weighed twice as much as the amberjack and the white marlin
fenix001 [56]
1 Amberjack 
Kingfish equals 2 Amberjacks
Marlin equals 2 Kingfish or 4 Amberjacks
Tarpon equals 5 AmberJacks

So:
1A plus 2A plus 4A plus 5A equals the 252.
(where A is weight of the AmberJack).

Therefore:
12A equals 252, and A is 21. (252/12 = 21)

Then:
The Amberjack is 21Ibs.
The Kingfish (twice as much as A) is 42Ibs.
The Marlin (four times A) is 84Ibs.
And the Tarpon (five times A) is 105Ibs. 

To Check:
21 + 42 + 84 + 105 = 252

Write the word sentence as an equation.<br><br> 5 is one-fourth of a number c.
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

5=NxC divided by 1/4 ( don't have division sign on computer)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we now that it will start with 5=, because it says "5 is..." then we see that we have to multiply the number by c, sense it just says "...a number c" without an action so we assume its multiplication. Finally we divide NxC by 1/4 to fine one fourth of a number c, which equals five.
