Answer:
Brownies made the most money
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c = cookies
b = brownies
We sold 51 items so c+b = 51
Cookies are .75 and brownies are 1.25
.75c + 1.25 b = 53.25
We have 2 equations and 2 unknowns
c = 51-b
Substituting into the second equation
.75(51-b) + 1.25b = 53.25
Distribute
38.25-.75b +1.25b = 53.25
Combine like terms
38.25+.5b = 53.25
Subtract 38.25 from each side
38.25 +.5b -38.25 = 53.25 -38.25
.5b =15
Divide each side by .5
.5b/.5 = 15/.5
b = 30
Now find c
c =51-b
c = 51-30
c = 21
They sold 30 brownies and 21 cookies
30 brownies * 1.25 =37.50
21 cookies *.75 = 15.75

Hi,
81 is 37.5% of 216.
"1. We assume, that the number 37.5 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 37.5, so we can write it down as 100%=37.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 81 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=81.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=37.5
2) x%=81
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=37.5/81
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for 81 is what percent of 37.5
100%/x%=37.5/81
(100/x)*x=(37.5/81)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.46296296296296*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.46296296296296) to get x
100/0.46296296296296=x
216=x
x=216 "
Have a great day!

Answer:
draw the line using a ruler on which you have identified points 2 7/16 inches apart
Step-by-step explanation:
On your ruler graduated in inches with marks at 1/16-inch intervals, locate the 0 mark and the mark 1/16 inch before the half-inch mark between 2 and 3 inches.
Draw your line along the edge of the ruler between the two marks you have identified: 0 and 2 7/16. The line will be 2 7/16 inches long.
