Answer:
15/4
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a proportion question
It says 1/2 crates of apple are used for every 3/4 crates of oranges
For 5/2 crates of apple, x crates of oranges will be needed.
To get x, we simply multiply 1/2 by x and equate it to 3/4 multiplied by 5/2
This means: 0.5x = 0.75 × 2.5
x = ( 0.75 × 2.5 ) ÷ 0.5 = 3.75
Hence for 5/2 crates for apple, she will need 15/4 crates of oranges.

That seems a little hard-
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: "Count 2 and then count 31 more."
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the equation:
231 - 198
Now, the negative number is kinda ugly, so i will write it as:
200 - 2 = 198
Is a lot easier work with 200 and 2, than with 198.
Then the equation is now:
231 - (200 - 2)
And the left number we also have a "200", so it can be written as:
200 + 31 = 231
As this is a sum, we can ignore the parentheses.
200 + 31 - 200 + 2
31 + 2
Then the correct option is:
"Count 2 and then count 31 more."
