If you are trying to create a garden of potted plants, you would find out how much soil each pot needs/holds and multiply that by how many pots you plan to use. then you would go to the store for potting soil, which let’s say came in smaller packs and you need to purchase multiple. use multiplication estimation to estimate how many bags you’d need.
I know this is a dumb example...sorry this is one I remember from my fourth grade math teacher ahah

Bubbles bakery has 24 oatmeal cookies, 36 vanilla bean cookies, 42 chocolate chip cookies. What is the greatest common factor bu
STatiana [176]

Answer:6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three groups of cookies as follows:

24   oatmeal

36   vanilla bean

42  chocolate chip

If we breack down into factors we get

24    2       24 = 2³ * 3        36    2   36 = 2²*3³         42   2   42 = 2*3*7

12     2                                 18    2                              21   3

6      2                                   9    3                                7   7

3      3                                   3    3                                1

1                                             1

Fom where we can get that biggest common factor is 6

24 ÷  6      =  4

36 ÷  6      =  6

42 ÷  6      =  7

Then Bakery will have  4 groups of oatmeal cookies, 6 of vanilla bean, and 7 chocolate chip

The yearly cost y for driving a certain car is $7,800 for 10,000 miles
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

y = 0.36x + 4200.00

15100.00 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the yearly cost for driving x miles is given by y dollars then the two ordered pairs to find the linear relation between x and y are (10000,7800) and (20000,11400).

So, the equation will be

\frac{y - 11400}{11400 - 7800} = \frac{x - 20000}{20000 - 10000}

⇒ \frac{y - 11400}{3600} = \frac{x - 20000}{10000}

⇒ y - 11400 = \frac{9}{25}(x - 20000)

⇒ y - 11400 = \frac{9}{25}x - 7200

⇒ y = \frac{9}{25}x + 4200

⇒ y = 0.36x + 4200.00 ........... (1) (Answer)

Now, for y = $9636.00, from equation (1),

9636 = 0.36x + 4200

⇒ 0.36x = 5436

⇒ x = 15100.00 miles. (Answer)
