Step-by-step explanation:
x/7 - 3/8 = 27/56
Multiply through by 56 , as 7 * 8 = 56 we have:
8x - 3*7 = 27
8x = 27 + 21 = 48
x = 6.
Answer:
Susan has suggested a correct method to calculate the amount of money
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we must check what each person is calculating. First, we consider Susan's method. She has suggested that we multiply the cost per soda, that is dollars/soda by the number of sodas required, we get the total cost.
Assuming that 18 sodas are required and each costs $0.20, the total cost according to Susan is $3.60.
John suggests we divide the cost of a 12 pack of soda by the number of sodas required. Considering a 12 pack of soda costs $12 and the same amount of sodas, 18, are required, we get that each soda costs $0.66.
Looking at these answers, we see that Susan has suggested a correct method to calculate the amount of money needed to buy a number of sodas. John has suggested the amount each person would have to contribute if everyone at the party was trying to buy a 12-pack of soda; regardless of whether more or less than a 12-pack is required.
Answer:
A. 4
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can try the first option. 2/4 is equivalent to 6/12 when you multiply the fraction by 3 to get a common denominator. Since 6/12 is larger than 4/12, and the question has 1 answer, 4 is the only value that satisfices the statement and is the answer.
0.90 = 175% of the original price
X * 1.75 = 0.90
(0.90 / 175) * 100 = $0.51
Hope this helps! :)
