0.14x + 0.07(280-x) = 0.08*280

0.14x + 19.6-0.07x = 22.4

0.07x + 19.6 = 22.4

0.07x = 2.8
x = 2.8 / 0.07 = 40
 x = 40 pounds of Soybean
280 -40 = 240 of cornmeal

What is pi squared as a fraction?
ivolga24 [154]
Π=3.14
Let's start with two digits:

3.14 = 3 14/100

= 3 7/50

= 157/50

would be the approximation for that. Let's add a few more digits:

3.1415 = 3 1415/10000

= 3 283/2000

= 6283/2000
