Step-by-step explanation:

  36 = 6×6

___

Each of her six (6) pencil boxes will have 3 pencils, 4 erasers, and 6 crayons.

Jackson had $25 to spend on groceries . After purchasing 5 cantaloupes he had $2.50 left how much did each cantaloupe cost
charle [14.2K]
Since the price of the cantaloupes is unknown, it will have to represented by a variable. Let's use x.
If Jackson starts with $25 and buys 5 cantaloupes of an unknown price, this subtracts 5 times the amount of 1 cantaloupe (which is x) from that $25.
This is shown as 25 - 5x.
After spending that money, he has $2.50 left over.
This means 25 - 5x = 2.50.
Now you just need to solve this by first isolating the variable.
First, subtract 25 from both sides.
25 - 5x - 25 = -5x
2.50 - 25 = -22.5
Then, divide both sides by -5. It's -5 since 5 is the coefficient and it's negative, so -5.
-5x / -5 = x
-22.5 / -5 = 4.5
This means x = 4.5.
And if x is 4.5, then that means the cost of 1 cantaloupe is $4.50.

If the Revenue for the week is $2000, and labor cost consists of two workers earning $8 per hour who work 40 hours each, what is
slega [8]
So,

All you have to do is find the total labor cost and put it over the revenue.

We have two workers each earning $8/hr. (lousy), and they work 40 hrs./week.

2 * $8 = $16/hr.

$16/hr. * 40 hrs. = $640

\frac{640}{2000}

Cross out zeros.
\frac{64}{200}

Simplify.
\frac{2^6}{2^35^2}
\frac{2^3}{5^2}
\frac{8}{25}

Convert the denominator to 100.
\frac{8}{25} *  \frac{4}{4} =  \frac{32}{100}
\frac{32}{100}
=
32%

The labor cost is 32% of the revenue.
