Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Let x equal the repeating decimal you are trying to convert to a fraction.
Step 2:
Examine the repeating decimal to find the repeating digit(s).
Step 3:
Place the repeating digit(s) to the left of the decimal point.
Step 4:
Place the repeating digit(s) to the right of the decimal point.
Step 5:
Using the two equations you found in step 3 and step 4, subtract the left sides of the two equations. Then, subtract the right sides of the two equations
As you subtract, just make sure that the difference is positive for both sides.
Answer:
Jelly beans: $6 for 1 kg
Gummy worms: $7 for 1 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we need to find the cost of 1kg of jelly beans and gummy worms.
To do this, make equations for both scenarios and solve:
2j + 2g = 26
2j + 3g = 33
Turn the bottom equation negative, as we will first solve for gummy worms (g).
2j + 2g = 26
-2j - 3g = -33
Solve:
-g = -7
Divide both sides by -1.
g = 7
We now know that gummy worms cost $7 for 1 kg
To solve for jellybeans (j), plug in 7 to g in one of the equations and solve:
2j + 2(7) = 26
2j + 14 = 26
Subtract 14 from both sides.
2j = 12
Divide both sides by 2.
j = 6
Jellybeans cost $6 for 1 kg.
Check answer by plugging in values to one of the equations:
2(6) + 2(7) = 26
12 + 14 = 26
26 = 26

Answer:
24 cubes
Step-by-step explanation:
You can figure this a couple of ways.
I usually find it easiest to figure in terms of the number of cubes each dimension represents. The vertical dimension (3/2 cm) is the length of 3 cubes; the front-back dimension (2 cm) is the length of 4 cubes, and the width (1 cm) is the length of 2 cubes.
The total number of cubes required is the product of the dimensions in cube-lengths: 3×4×2 = 24 cubes.

Another way to figure this is to compute the prism volume in the given dimensions (cm³) and the cube volume in the same dimensions, then find the number of cube volumes in the prism volume.
Prism volume = l×w×h = (2 cm)(1 cm)(3/2 cm) = 3 cm³
Cube volume = (1/2 cm)³ = 1/8 cm³
Then the number of cubes that will fit in the prism is ...
(3 cm³)/(1/8 cm³) = 3×8 = 24 . . . . cubes
