Answer: 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Lindsay and Lorraine are trying to match the jump rope world record.
Number of jumps they need to jump together in a row = 48
Lindsay has gotten 14 jumps in a row, and Lorraine has gotten 13.
Total jumps = 14+13=27
Let 'j' be the number of more jumps they need to match the record.
j= Total jumps needed - Total jumps they already gotten
⇒ j= 48-27
⇒ j= 21
Hence, they need 21 more jumps to match the record.
If they each kept the same amount of the $50 prize, then we divide $50
by 2 people, giving each of them $25 winnings. Your question is then a
little confusing because it could be answered in two ways. Did they
each keep $20.75 out of their $25 winnings, or did the two of them keep
$20.75 in a combined total? Please read your question again to see
which might be the case. I'm answering on the assumption that they each
kept $20.75.
STEP 1:
divide total prize money by 2
= $50 ÷ 2
= $25 each won
STEP 2:
If they each kept $20.75
= $25 won - $20.75 each kept
= $4.25 each gave away
STEP 3:
multiply amount given away by 2 people
= $4.25 * 2 people
= $8.50 total given away
ANSWER: The total given to Romy is $8.50.
Hope this helps! :)
I've got three photos for the answers but they don't include 31 or 32.
One serving is 3/4 cups of rice. To find out how many serving there are in 12 cups of rice, you divide 12 by 3/4. (When dividing fractions, don't ask why. Flip the second one over and multiply).
12/(3/4) = 12 *(4/3) = 48/3 = 16
There are 16 servings of rices in 12 cups.
