Answer: what is the problem
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
$289.25
Step-by-step explanation:
First we should find out how much Ms. Maple would make in a week without overtime.
6.5 x 40 = 260
Now, let's figure out how much she makes per hour in overtime.
6.5 x 1.5 = 9.75
Now add up the hours of overtime.
9.75 x 3 = 29.25
Now we add the weekly wage to the overtime
260 + 29.25 = 289.25
For 40 hours of regular time at $6.50/hr and 3 hours of overtime at $9.75/hr, Ms. Maple will make $289.25 for the week.
Answer:
605 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratio of boys to girls is 5:7
and there are 847 girls
we can plug this value into the ratio by doing something like:
5:7
= 5/7
= x/847
Because the ratio has to be the same, we can substitute x for the number of boys and solve by the cross method or whatever you guys call it.
5 x
--- x ------
7 847
The x in the middle is just to show the direction you are multiplying.
the 5 is multiplied by the 847 and the 7 is multiplied by x.
847 * 5 = 4,235
4,235 divided by 7 is 605
605 is your answer.
The cross method can be used in most situations.
* is used to represent multiplication btw
