Answer:
Table shown below
Step-by-step explanation:
Table shown below
To solve this problem let's use proportions.
If 2 pounds of grapes cost $6, half the amount will cost half the dollars, so the last row will have $3 in the price
For the second row, we know the price is $1, that is, one-sixth of the original given price. It should correspond to one-sixth of the amount of grapes or 2/6 pounds.
Simplifying the fraction, we get 1/3 or 0.33 pounds
Answer:
This is also known as the Counting rule.
The Fundamental Counting Principle is used in determining all the possible outcomes and the total possible ways different events can be combined with each other. It is usually done by multiplying all the events together to get the total possible outcome. Doing this also helps in determining the sample space of a probability.
For example there are events a, b and c. The total sample space or possible outcome will be a*b*c.
Each person gets 0.083333..... of the box of cereal. i got my answer by dividing 0.25 or 1/4 by three and the answer was 0.083333 repeating.
STEP 1:
BAGS OF FOUR
find number of bags needed to total 74 apples
= 74 ÷ 4 apples/bag
= 18.5 bags
*must round up to 19 bags because we cannot buy a partial bag
STEP 2:
BAGS OF FOUR
calculate price of 19 bags of 4 apples per bag
= 19 bags * $5/bag
= $95 for 19 bags of 4 apples/bag
STEP 3:
BAGS OF SIX
find number of bags needed to total 74 apples
= 74 ÷ 6 apples per bag
= 12.3333 bags needed
*must round up to 13 bags because we cannot buy a partial bag
STEP 4:
BAGS OF SIX
calculate price of 13 bags of 6 apples per bag
= 13 bags * $7 per bag
= $91 for 13 bags of 6 apples/bag
ANSWER: The smallest cost to buy 74 apples is $91.
Hope this helps! :)
