Answer: A) We need 1 1/2 ft of ribbon

B)$1.60 per foot

C)$2.40 is the total

Step-by-step explanation:

So if the length around the jar is 18 inches and we know that there is 12 inches in a foot, and 3 feet in a yard and $ 4.80 per every 3 feet. These become basis numbers. 18in- 12inch= 6 inch. So now we have 1 1/2 feet of ribbon to cover the circumference of the jar. Now we are left to answer the second question how much does it cost per foot? We can divide 4.80 by 3 to see the total cost of a foot of ribbon. That turns to 1.60 per foot. We divide that by two to cover the 6 inches. And the answer is $2.40 for 1 1/2 feet of ribbon

A sports teacher had 1025 sweets. After distributing these equally amongst all the participants in a sports meet, he had just 1
Cerrena [4.2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it remains only 1 sweet, we can subtract it from the total and get the amount of sweets distributed (=1024).

As all the sweets are distributed equally, we must divide the number of distributed sweets by all its dividers (excluding 1024 and 1, we'll see later why):

1) 512 => 2 partecipants

2) 256 => 4 partecipants

3) 128 => 8 partecipants

4) 64 => 16 partecipants

5) 32 => 32 partecipants

6) 16 => 64 partecipants

7) 8 => 128 partecipants

9) 4 => 256 partecipants

10) 2 => 512 partecipants

The number on the left represents the number of sweets given to the partecipants, and on the right we have the number of the partecipants. Note that all the numbers on the left are dividers of 1024.

Why excluding 1 and 1024? Because the problem tells us that there remains 1 sweet. If there was 1 sweet for every partecipant, the number of partecipants would be 1025, but that's not possible as there remains 1 sweet. If it was 1024, it wouldn't work as well because the sweets are 1025 and if 1 is not distributed it goes again against the problem that says all sweets are equally distributed.
