Answer:


Well, how many were left over? Mrs. Adams has a muffin factory and made 1 million muffins. Carl ate 2/5 or 40% or 400,000 muffins, and John ate 25. 599,975 muffins were shipped for sale. That meets the stated requirements.


Hence, we have to guess there were supposed to be no muffins left over.


In that case, Mrs. Adams baked 125/3 muffins, Carl ate 2/5 of them = 50/3, leaving 75/3 = 25 for John.



Step-by-step explanation:

x muffins baked, 2/5 eaten by Carl, 3/5 left to be eaten by John, who ate 25 before running out.


3/5 x = 25

x = 25 × 5/3 = 125/3 = 41 + 2/3


Or, Start with x muffins. Carl ate 2/5 x, leaving 3/5 x. John ate 25 with zero left over. So 3/5 x = 25.


(x - 2/5 x) - 25 = 0

3/5 x = 25

x = (5/3) × 25 = 125/3.

Answer:

86 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so since 4 circles fit in the square, each circle's diameter must be 10.

Which means the radius of each circle is 5 because 10 ÷ 2 = 5.

Now we can solve for area.

A = πr²

A = 3.14 x 5²

A = 3.14 x 25

A = 78.5 cm²

78.5 cm² is the area of one circle so we multiply that by 4.

78.5 x 4 = 314 cm²

Now we subtract from the area of the square.

20 x 20 = 400 cm²

400 - 314 = 86 cm²
