Let x be the number of pens in a box.

Jill : three full boxes of pen and 2 loose pens. 3x + 2
Ben: two full boxes of pen and 14 loose pens. 2x + 14

Jill and Ben have the same pens. 
Jill        = Ben
3x+2    = 2x + 14
3x - 2x = 14 - 2
      1x  = 12
         x = 12

To check:
Jill            =       Ben
3x + 2      =       2(x) + 14
3(12) + 2  =       2(12) + 14
36 + 2      =       24 + 14
           38 = 38

There are 12 pens or a dozen of pens in a full box.

during a basketball game justin attempted 40 shots and made 18. He says he made 35% of the shots is justin correct
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

No, Justin is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find how much 18/40 as a percent is, we just multiply 18/40 by 100:

  • \frac{18}{40} * 100
  • \frac{9}{20} * 100
  • \frac{900}{20}
  • 45

2. As you can see, 18/40 as a percent is 45%, not 35%. Therefore, Justin is incorrect.
