Step-by-step explanation:
1 ounce --> ?
1/5 --> 1/25
i chaged the freactions to decimal this is what i got,
1ounce --> ?
0.2 ounce--> 0.04 ounces
divide 0.2 ounces by 0.04 ounces and you'll get the answer
0.2 is the answer per pound of jelly you will use o.2 ounces
Answer:
x = 35
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
5 (x + 20) = 7 x + 30
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
5 x + 100 = 7 x + 30
Subtract 7 x from both sides:
(5 x - 7 x) + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30
5 x - 7 x = -2 x:
-2 x + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30
7 x - 7 x = 0:
100 - 2 x = 30
Subtract 100 from both sides:
(100 - 100) - 2 x = 30 - 100
100 - 100 = 0:
-2 x = 30 - 100
30 - 100 = -70:
-2 x = -70
Divide both sides of -2 x = -70 by -2:
(-2 x)/(-2) = (-70)/(-2)
(-2)/(-2) = 1:
x = (-70)/(-2)
The gcd of -70 and -2 is -2, so (-70)/(-2) = (-2×35)/(-2×1) = (-2)/(-2)×35 = 35:
Answer: x = 35
Rounding the number to the hundreds place, the answer would be 285.39.
Hope this helped!
