2= $5.00
3= $7.50
15= x

1 puzzle= $2.50
so, 15 puzzles= $37.50

2x=5.00; 2/2x= 5.00/2; x= 2.50
3x= 7.50; 3/3x= 7.50/3; x= 2.50
15*x= 15x; 15*2.50= 37.50

You can solve this problem several ways if 2 puzzles cost $5.00 then 1 puzzle costs $2.50 the variable would be the number of puzzles, the cost of each puzzle stays the same cost= number of puzzles times the price 2,50 (15)= x $37,50 =x also if 3 puzzles cost 7.50 then 15 is 5 times that cost 5 (7,50)= $ 37.50 also ratio and proportion 1 puzzle/$2.50= 15 puzzles/ x $ cross multiply x= $37,50 hope this helps

a piece of string is 3 yards long. How many 1 and a quarter yard long pieces can Julie cut from the string?
Georgia [21]
This question is actually a lot simpler than it seems

for a quarter think about money - a quarter is 25 cents or 1/4 of a dollar - so 1 and a quarter yard in decimal form is equivalent to 1.25

now you need to find how many 1 and a quarter yards are in 3 yards - to do this you simply divide 3 by 1.25

3/1.25 = 2.4

so julie can cut 2.4 1 and a quarter long pieces from the string

if you have any questions about how i answered this question please let me know:)
