Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Charle would have spent that much because one pound is 2.50

15 divided by 6=2.50

2.50x8=20

Answer:

Charles would've spent $20 at the supermarket if he bought the same amount of pounds as Lupe.

Step-by-step explanation:

18÷8= 2.25

2.25 is the amount of money per pound at the wholesaler.

15÷6= 2.50

2.50 is the amount of money per pound at the supermarket.

2.50x8=  20

Charles would've spent $20 if he bought the same amount of pounds as Lupe. Since one pound cost 2.50 at the supermarket, 8 times 2.50 is 20. He would actually spend more at the supermarket than the wholesaler.

3) Tara sold candles to raise money for new playground equipment at her school.
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Tara's current expression finds how much the school will be keeping. 50 x 2/5 (also written as 50 x 0.4) totals out as 20. $20 is 2/5 of $50. The expression that Tara SHOULD have written to find how much goes to the candle company would be 50 x 3/5 (also written as 50 x 0.6), as this adds up to 30. $30 is 3/5 of $50.

Step-by-step explanation:

50/5 = 10 which means that 1/5 of 50 = 10.

2/5 of 50 ($20) is kept by the school. This is what Tara's expression finds. This means that $30 is sent to the candle company, and can be found with the expression 50 x 3/5.

The decimals are created by dividing the numerator of the fraction by the denominator (I find it easier to do math with decimals).
