Answer:
# of cases: 11
Additional units: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
If each case can hold 8 units, and we want to find the total # number of cases, we have to divide the # of units (8) for one case by the total # units (90).
As you can see, after dividing by 8, we have a total of 11 cases and a remainder of 2 units. The remainder will be the # of additional units because we cannot have another case filled with 8 units.
Given:
Kim picked 250 pounds of pears yesterday and 287 pounds of pears today.
To find:
The percentage increase of amount of pears picked by Kim.
Solution:
We know that,
Therefore, the percentage increase of amount of pears picked by Kim is 14.8%.
Your two equations are at the top, in the box is what each variable represents. Below the box is total liters of the 15%, which is going to equal the total liters for 10% plus the total liters for 25%. Make your percentages into decimals. There’s a total of 30 liters so, x+y needs to equal 30. Isolate a variable, I chose y, you can do either or (isolating x would be more math). Y is going to equal 30-x, substitute that for the Y in the second equation, then you need to distribute 0.25 into 30-x. Then it’s simple math, subtract 7.50 from both sides, add like gets, divide both sides by -0.15, making x=20.
