If the problem says by or divided by
4 dozen. That means she used half, she has 2 dozen left. 1/4 of that is 1/2 of a dozen, so she has 6 or 1/2 a dozen snickers bars left. Is this middle school? I am in middle school and my lessons are constant of proportionality!!
The simplified ratio is 2:3. Since the smaller number when it's not simplified is 18, let's divide 18 by 2 to get our factor.
18/2 = 9.
So we can multiply 9 by 3 to get the missing larger number.
9 x 3 = 27.
Your missing number is 27, hope this helps!
Answer:
xx(0.65) + xx(0.08)
Step-by-step explanation:
First step is to find the discounted price. Finding 35% less than the original xx is the same as finding 65% of it, so we multiply by 0.65. Once this is completed we need to find 8% more than that. So we add 8% of xx, which is the same as multiplying by 0.08. Hope this helps :)
