2/5 were sold in the morning. This is equal to 40% of the total. That leaves 60% leftover.
3/4 were sold in the afternoon. This is equal to 75% of the 60% leftover or 45% of the total (.6x.75).
The difference between the two sales is 24 cartons or 5% (45%-40%). If 5% is equal to 24 then you can cross multiply to see what is the equivalent number of cartons out of 100%.
5/100 = 24/x
5x = 24(100)
5x = 2400
x = 480
ANSWER: 480 cartons
So Basically, these are similar. So that means that (2x/5.5)=(3x-3/7.5). Then when you cross multiply, you find that x=11. So that means BA/FE=22/5.5=4. You can verify by checking (3*11-3)/7.4=4. So now that you know the scale factor is 4, just do 4*8=32.
It’s actually independent
Answer:
x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
25x - 6x - 18x + 7
