First box = 14 pounds
Second box = 2x = 28 pounds
Third Box = x+2= 16 pounds
Fourth box = x/2 = 7 pounds
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here we have , Sixty-five pounds of candy was divided into four different boxes. The second box contained twice the amount of the first box. The third box contained two more pounds than the first box. The last box contained one-fourth the amount in the second box. We need to find How much candy was in each box. Let's find out:
We have a total of 65 pounds of candy ! Let in first box we have x pounds so , second box contained twice the amount of the first box i.e.
⇒
The third box contained two more pounds than the first box i.e.
⇒
The last box contained one-fourth the amount in the second box i.e.
⇒
Therefore , Sum of pounds of candy are :
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
Therefore , Candy in each box is :
First box = 14 pounds
Second box = 2x = 28 pounds
Third Box = x+2= 16 pounds
Fourth box = x/2 = 7 pounds
The least number should always start off with negatives if there are any. In this case there is so we can start with -2 as our least amount. Next are the small fractions. If you're allowed a calculator, I would use that to find what the decimals will look like for each fraction:
After -2 the next least number is 0 and the next one is the fraction or decimal closest to the number 0 which is 0.4
The next number would be from the fractions we solved earlier. 0.5 and 0.625 would follow 0.4 and then 1.1 and 1.6667(solved for from fraction).
Here is the list:
