Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes the company can hire 6 carpenters and 12 pumbers
So first lets find out how much it costs to have 6 carpenter for $220 a day.
$220 × 6 = $1320 this is how much it cost to pay 6 carpenters for one day.
Now lets find how much it cost to 12 plumbers at $260 a day.
$260 × 12 = $3120 this is how much it costs to pay 12 plumbers a day.
The total amount you have to pay to the workers is:
$3120 + $1320 = $4440
Your budget was $4500 so the total costs for the workers is $4440 which means you can hire those workers and you would still have $60.
You can remove the % sign if you divide the number by 100:
This is because % is defined as 1/100, and the name (per-cent) actually meant this originally!
we can also simplify it: let's divide it by 4:
Use a calculator
Just look up how to find unit rates and it should be easy
So theres 4 hours and 60min equals 1 hour, so multiply 4 by 60 to get 240, so theres 240 minutes of time on the mp3. So 1/6 of that total time (240min) was on jazz, so what you do is divide 240 by 6 to get 40, so every 1/6 is 40min. So you could say he spend 40min listening to jazz, or you could say he spent 2/3 of an hour listening to jazz
Hey there! :)
Answer:
m = 4.25, or 17/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the proportion:
Cross multiply:
8(m - 3) = 5 · 2
Distribute the 8:
8m - 8(3) = 10
8m - 24 = 10
Add 24 to both sides:
8m = 34
Divide both sides by 8:
8m/8 = 34/8
m = 4.25, or 17/4.
