392 boots. If you divide everything into "sets" of an unknown amount, there are 5 more "sets" of boots than sandals, also known as the 245 boots. So if you divide 245 by 5, you'll get the number of items in a "set". Then just multiply by 8 from the 8:3 ratio. If you check it, it will come out to 392 boots to 147 sandals, which I think is ridiculous since sandals are supposed to come in pairs so you should never have a odd number. But anyway, 392 - 147 = 245
5% = 0.05
50 x 0.05 = $2.50
Total tax will be $2.50
Total amount he will pay = 50 + 2.50 = $52.50
7.8335 is a number between 7.833 and 8.834
Hank bought same guppies as Marta but 2more platies so
18.33-13.95=4.38
2platies=4.38
4.38/2=2.19
2.19 price of platies
13.95-4.34=9.61
9.61/3=3.20
3.29 price of guppies
The answer is 29. If you put it in an equation, it looks like 90=(x*3)+3. If you -3 from each side, you get 87=x*3. Divide each side by 3, and you get x=29.
