How much does 4 5/7 kg of candy cost if 5/6 kg costs $7.50

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aliun [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

It costs $42.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The cost of \frac{5}{6} kilogram of candy is $7.5

- We need to find the cost of 4\frac{5}{7} kilogram

We  can use the ratio to find the answer

======= Dollar   :    Kilogram

======= 7.5        :    \frac{5}{6}

=======  c           :    4\frac{5}{7}  

By using cross multiplication

∴ c × \frac{5}{6} = 7.5 × 4\frac{5}{7}

∵ 4\frac{5}{7} = \frac{4*7+5}{7}

∴ 4\frac{5}{7} = \frac{33}{7}

∴ c × \frac{5}{6} = 7.5 × \frac{33}{7}

∴ c × \frac{5}{6} = \frac{495}{14}

Divide both sides by \frac{5}{6}

∴ c = \frac{495}{14} ÷ \frac{5}{6}

Change the division sign to multiplication sign and reciprocal the

fraction after the division sign

∴ c = \frac{495}{14} × \frac{6}{5}

∴ c = \frac{297}{7} = 42.43 dollars

∵ c represents the cost of 4\frac{5}{7} kg

∴ It costs $42.43
