If it says 3×8 its like saying 8+8+8=21.
It's just a faster way of adding.
Anything multiplied by 0 is 0.
Anything multiplied by 10 just add a 0 to the end of the number example 10×2=20.
The area of a square would me multiplying the width times the length and then multiplying by one half would be like splitting the square in half so your answer would be that last one right there. 6*6= area then multiply by 1/2 = half of area Hope this helps! :D
It's a y=mx+b equation, Carries' would be y=1/2 x - 125 (total profit is equal to the cupcake amount, each sold for 50 cents - the startup cost of 125). Juanita's would be y=2.25x-125. Comparing Carries' to Juanita's sales would mean that you would multiply x by 3 (no less than 3 times the ..). I may elaborate further on comparing in the comment section
I think she can add 5p more of orange which is 9p and 6p more water which is 8p. I'm pretty sure this works because 9 is the next closest multiple of 3 and 8 is one number less than that. Hope this helps!
