Answer: 48
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Define the number of cakes they baked in term of x
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let the number of cakes Kay baked be x
Kay = x
Tim = 3x ← Tim baked 3 times as many as Kay
Griff = 1.5x ← Griff baked 1/2 as many as Tim
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Construct the equation and solve for x
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The total number of cakes baked was 88.
x + 3x + 1.5x = 88 ← Combine like terms
5.5 x = 88 ← Divide by 5.5
÷5.5 ÷5.5
x = 16
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the number of cakes each baked
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kay = x = 16
TIm = 3x = 16 x 3 = 48
Griff = 1.5x = 1.5(16) = 24
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Tim baked 48 cakes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He will spend $66.3 because 78 times 15/100 (which is 15%) is 11.7, and since he reduces the food you will have to subtract 11.7 from $78, to get $66.3
Another name for x is plane F
Answer:
0.45
Step-by-step explanation:
Percent is per 100, so the fraction is 45/100.
The decimal is the numerator, but you need to swoop 2 times.
Therefore, the answer is 0.45.
