Answer: 864</h3>
=======================================================
Work Shown:
There are,
- 3 sizes of coffee
- 4 types of coffee
- 2 choices for cream (you pick it or you leave it out)
- 2 choices for sugar (same idea as the cream)
This means there are 3*4*2*2 = 12*4 = 48 different coffees. We'll use this value later, so let A = 48.
There are 6 bagel options. Also, there are 3 choices in terms of if you order the bagel plain, with butter, or with cream cheese. This leads to 6*3 = 18 different ways to order a bagel. Let B = 18.
Multiply the values of A and B to get the final answer
A*B = 48*18 = 864
There are 864 ways to order a coffee and bagel at this restaurant.

If you're curious why you multiply the values out, consider this smaller example.
Let's say you had 3 choices of coffee and 2 choices for a bagel. Form a table with 3 rows and 2 columns. Place the different coffee choices along the left to form each row. Along the top, we'll have the two different bagel choices (one for each column).
This 3 by 2 table leads to 3*2 = 6 individual table cells inside. Each cell in the table represents a coffee+bagel combo. This idea is applied to the section above, but we have a lot more options.
You can multiply both sides by a number that will get rid of the denominators. For ex. you can multiply the first equation by 12 because 4 and 3 both go into 12 evenly. MAKE SURE YOU MULTIPLY THE OTHER SIDE BY 12 AS WELL! Therefore, 12(x/4) - 12(y/3) = 12(1), or 3x - 4y = 12
The longest bolt is 1 4/8 inches, and the shortest bolt is 3/8 inch.
Subtract 3/8 from 1 4/8 to get 1 1/8 inch difference.
To answer the question we need to know if 35 out of 50 states is equal or greater than 3/4 if that is the case, the Constitution will be ammended, and that is represented like this:
35/50 >= 3/4
that inequality is saying that 35 states out of 50 is equal or greater than 3/4, lets simplify and modify the fractions to compare easily:
<span>35/50 >= 3/4
</span>7/10 <span>>= 3/4
</span>now we need to find the least common multiplier of 10 and 4 to take the fractions to a common denominator and compare easy. Lets multiply numerator and denominator for a correct number to get the fractions to denominator common 20, the lcm:
7/10 <span>>= 3/4
</span>(2/2)(7/10) >= (5/5)(3/4)
2*7/2*10 >= 5*3/5*4
14/20 >= 15/20
we can see that the inequality does not hold, so,
<span>35/50 >= 3/4
</span>does not hold either, therefore the Constitution cannot be ammended
