Answer:
2 pieces, 30ft each
Step-by-step explanation:
rope : 60ft long
we are trying to figure out how many equal pieces we can cut the rope into with the length of each piece to be the greatest possible integer:
if jason wants the length of rope to be the longest than the answer is 2, if he divides the length of 60 by 2, each piece will be 30 feet long. If he divides the rope by any number larger, each piece will be shorter than 30 feet, and he wants the piece to be the largest possible length.
You just keep multiplying,preferably with a calculator
Answer:
a. 4 teachers b. 58 students c. 62 people
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 80 by 0.05, you get 4.
Multiply 1160 by 0.05, you get 58.
Add 80 and 1160 together, you get 1240. Multiply 1240 by 0.05, you get 62.
P = $650
r = 5% annually = 0.05
t = 1 month = 1/12 year
SI = Prt = 650 * 0.05 * 1/12 = $2.7
