Answer:
There were 84 students in 6th grade, 68 in 7th grade, and 90 in 8th grade.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Elk middle school has 264 students, and there are 84 students in the eighth grade, and there are 22 fewer seventh-grade students than sixth-grade students, to determine how many students there are in each grade, the following calculation must be performed:
(264 - 84) / 2) - 22 = X
(180/2) - 22 = X
90 - 22 = X
68 = X
6th grade = 84
7th grade = 68
8th grade = 90
Therefore, there were 84 students in 6th grade, 68 in 7th grade, and 90 in 8th grade.
Claire at 2/4 of the brownie and 1/6 of the leftover.
$9.49; 10% of $9.95 is $0.995 which rounds up to a dollar; $9.95 - $1.00 = $8.95; 6% of $8.95 = $0.537 which rounds up to $0.54, so total paid is $8.95 + $0.54 = $9.49.
I'd like to look at this as both a math joke and a warm message.
Thank you, love.
Answer:
x = 39
Step-by-step explanation:
The opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent, so
3x - 15 = 2x + 24 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
x - 15 = 24 ( add 15 to both sides )
x = 39
