10+8h=66
minus 10 both sides
8h=56
divide both sides by 8
h=7
worked 7 hours

To solve this question you need to make an equation including each variable: the extra $10, the $8 per hour (we'll represent hours as h) and the total amount of money, $66. Then simply solve the equation to get your final answer.

10 + 8h = 66
8h = 56 Subtract 10 from both sides
h = 7 Divide both sides by 8

In other words, he worked 7 hours.

the area of a rectangle garden is 38 1/4 square meters.The width of the garden is 4 1/2 meters.Find the length of the garden.

never [62]

Area = 38 1/4 = 153/4

Width = 4 1/2 = 9/2

Area = Length x Width

Length = Area/Width

So divide both of them:
$\sf{ \frac{153}{4} \div \frac{9}{2} =\sf{ \frac{153}{4} \times \frac{2}{9} = \frac{9 \times 17}{2\times 2}\times \frac{2}{9} = \frac{17}{2}$

So the length is equal to $\boxed{\sf{\frac{17}{2}}}$

Explain how to multiply the following whole numbers 21 x 14

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

$\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&\textbf{1}\\ \times \:&1&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}$

________

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{0}&8&4\\ +&\textbf{2}&1&0\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&9&4\end{matrix}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$21\:\times \:14$

Line up the numbers

$\begin{matrix}\space\space&2&1\\ \times \:&1&4\end{matrix}$

Multiply the top number by the bottom number one digit at a time starting with the ones digit left(from right to left right)

Multiply the top number by the bolded digit of the bottom number

$\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&\textbf{1}\\ \times \:&1&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}$

Multiply the bold numbers: 1×4=4

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&2&\textbf{1}\\ \times \:&1&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&4\end{matrix}}$

Multiply the bold numbers: 2×4=8

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&1\\ \times \:&1&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&8&4\end{matrix}}$

Multiply the top number by the bolded digit of the bottom number

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&\textbf{1}\\ \times \:&\textbf{1}&4\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&8&4\end{matrix}}$

Multiply the bold numbers: 1×1=1

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&2&\textbf{1}\\ \space\space&\times \:&\textbf{1}&4\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&8&4\\ \space\space&\space\space&1&\space\space\end{matrix}}$

Multiply the bold numbers: 2×1=2

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&\textbf{2}&1\\ \space\space&\times \:&\textbf{1}&4\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&8&4\\ \space\space&2&1&\space\space\end{matrix}}$

Add the rows to get the answer. For simplicity, fill in trailing zeros.

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&2&1\\ \space\space&\times \:&1&4\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&0&8&4\\ \space\space&2&1&0\end{matrix}}$

adding portion

$\begin{matrix}\space\space&0&8&4\\ +&2&1&0\end{matrix}$

Add the digits of the right-most column: 4+0=4

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&0&8&\textbf{4}\\ +&2&1&\textbf{0}\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&\space\space&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}}$

Add the digits of the right-most column: 8+1=9

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&0&\textbf{8}&4\\ +&2&\textbf{1}&0\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&\textbf{9}&4\end{matrix}}$

Add the digits of the right-most column: 0+2=2

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{0}&8&4\\ +&\textbf{2}&1&0\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&9&4\end{matrix}}$

Therefore,

$\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&\textbf{1}\\ \times \:&1&\textbf{4}\end{matrix}$

________

$\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{0}&8&4\\ +&\textbf{2}&1&0\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{2}&9&4\end{matrix}}$
