Luca sells muffins and juice boxes at the
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

1.5m+1.25j

Step-by-step explanation:

m equals the number of muffins sold, and because each muffin sells for $1.50, 1.5m represents the income made from the muffins.

Same thing with the juice boxes, j equals the number of juice boxes sold, and because each juice box sells for $1.25, 1.25j represents the income made from the juice boxes.

Add the income from both of them to get the total income, and you get 1.5m+1.25j.

Isabelle bought some stationery. 1/3 of them were pencils. 5/8 of the remainder were erasers and the rest were rulers. The cost
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Isabelle spent $52.50 more on Erasers than rulers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the quantity of each stationery bought in fraction

Let us represent the total fraction of what Isabelle bought as: x

1/3x = quantity of pencils bought

5/8 of the remainder = quantity of erasers bought

The remainder = x - 1/3x = 2/3x

5/8 of 2/3x = 5/8 × 2/3x = 5/12x

Hence, 5/12x = quantity of erasers bought

The rest is rulers

1 - (1/3 + 5/12)

1 - (4 + 5/12)

1 - 9/12

1 - 3/4

= 1/4x

Hence, 1/4 = quantity of rulers bought.

Step 2

We find the number of stationeries that Isabelle bought.

The cost of the stationery is

a Pencil: $1.20

an eraser: $1

a ruler: $0.50.

Total amount spent on stationery = 169.50

We have this equation

1.20 × 1/3x + 1 × 5/12x + 0.50 × 1/4x = 169.50

0.4x + 0.4166666667x + 0.125x =

169.50

0.9416666667x = 169.50

x = 169.50 /0.9416666667

x = 179.99999999

Approximately , the number of stationeries that Isabelle bought = x = 180

Step 3

Find the number and the amount spent on each stationery that Isabelle bought

a) i) Quantity of pencils bought = 1/3 x

x = 180

= 1/3 × 180

= 60 pencils

ii) Amount spent on pencils

If 1 pencil = $1.20

60 pencils =

60 × 1.20 = $72

b) i) Quantity of Erasers bought = 5/12x

x = 180

= 5/12 × 180

= 75 pencils

ii) Amount spent on Eraser

If 1 pencil = $1

75 pencils =

75 × 1 = $75

c) i) Quantity of rulers bought = 1/4 x

x = 180

= 1/4 × 180

= 45 pencils

ii) Amount spent on pencils

If 1 pencil = $0.50

45 pencils =

45 × 0.50 = $22.50

Step 4

We were asked to calculate how much more did she spend on erasers than rulers.

In step 3, the amount spent on Erasers = $75

the amount spent on ruler = $22.5

The difference in the amount spent = $75 - $22.5

= $52.5

Therefore, Isabelle spent $52.50 more on Erasers than rulers.
