She has 128 total baskets.

Now we need to find 25% of 128. That is because 1/4 = 25

25% of 128

Set up a proportion

128/x=100/25
128=4*x 
128/4=x 
32=x 
x=32

Now we subtract 128 by 32 and we get our answer.

128-32 = 96

Our final answer: She needs 96 more baskets to pack.

To answer this we will DIVIDE the amount of baskets by 4 (since it is 1/4) to see how many she has ALREADY packed, and ho many she has left. Lets do it:-

128 ÷ 4 = 32

CHECK OUR WORK:-

32 × 4 = 128.

So, she has done 32 baskets. lets see how many more she needs to pack:-

128 - 32 = 96.

So, Shelia has 96 baskets LEFT to pack,

Explain how to find the distance between two integers using the difference

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When we want to find the distance between two integers using the difference, the best way is to plot them on number line. And then count distance between them.

For example -3 and -1.

When we want to find difference we have:

-3-(-1)=-2

But distance can not be negative.

Now, we need to count distance between numbers -3 and -1 on the number line.

So we have from -3 to -2, one place and from -2 to -1 one place it is 2 places.

So distance is 2.
