Divide the number made by the number of attempts:

Jay: 8 /10 = 0.80 = 80%

Kim: 25 / 45 = 0.555 = 55.5%

Jay had a better rate because 80% is greater than 55.5%.

0.30 • 18 = 5.4
0.30 • 40 = 12
0.30 • 9 = 2.7
0.30 • 70 = 21
0.30 • 48 = 14.4
0.30 • 26 = 7.8
0.30 • 14 = 4.2
Add the sums together which would be 67.5
Subtract $100 from $67.5 and that would be $32.5

A salsa recipe uses green pepper, and onion, and tomato in the extended ratio 2:5:9. How many cups of onion are needed to make 9

Vlad1618 [11]

The answer is 30 cups

Let x be a multiplier. So:
2x + 5x + 9x = 96
16x = 96
x = 96/16
x = 6 cups

Since the number of onion cups is 5x, then 5 * 6 = 30 cups are needed to make 96 cups of salsa.
