You basically need to set up a porporion:
1.6/2.4 = x/7.2
x=4.8
Box = b
Parrots = p
b/p = number of days it can support the parrots
Half a dozen = 6 (A dozen is 12)
1/6 = 15
To work out the percentage of '6' '5' is, use the equation
(5/6)*100 = 83.333....
Meaning that with one less bird, the box will support the birds for 16.666... (100 - 18.333...) longer
(15/100)*116.666... = 17.4999....
The box will sustain the parrots for 17.5 days
Answer:
17w+35
Step-by-step explanation:
(2+2w)⋅4+9(w+3)
Distribute the 4 and the 9
2*4 + 2w*4 +9*w+9*3
8+8w +9w +27
Combine like terms
8w+9w +8+27
17w +35
Your answer is c, common sense
