Answer:

The rate is \frac{1}{6} cups per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

It took the faucet 1 1/2 hours equivalent 3/2 hours to fill 1/4 cup by leaking

We need to find the rate in terms of cups that can be filled by water in 1 hour.

Using unitary method:

it takes \frac{3}{2} h for \frac{1}{4} cup

it will take 1 h for how many cups?

= \frac{1 \times \frac{1}{4} }{\frac{3}{2} }= \frac{2}{4 \times 3}= \frac{2}{12}= \frac{1}{6} cups

Hence, the rate is \frac{1}{6} cups per hour

Offer B is the best value for money because each kg cost is £0.61 and in offer 'A' each kg cost is £0.7.

<h3>What is a fraction?</h3>

Fraction number consists of two parts, one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.

We have:
2 bags for £35

2 bags means 50 kg (2×25)

Each kg cost = 35/50 = £0.7 per kg

3 bags for £92.50

3 bags means 150 kg

Each kg cost = 92.50/150 = £0.61 per kg

As we can see, offer B has a low cost per kg

Thus, offer B is the best value for money because each kg cost is £0.61 and in offer 'A' each kg cost is £0.7.

If three times a number minus 2 equals 13, what is the number?
Nana76 [90]
Change the messy words into numerals
3     times          a number         minus            2           equals         13
3          ×                n                     -                 2               =               13

3n - 2 = 13
take 2 to the other side
3n - 2 + (2)  = 13 + (2)
3n = 15

Divide by 3 on either sides to isolate n
\frac{3n}{3} = \frac{15}{3}
3 and 3 cancels out

n = 5

check:
3 times 5 minus 2 equals 13
3     ×    5       -      2     =     13
15    -      2        =          13
13            =               13

The number is 5
