Answer:

Becky saves $4.86 by choosing to buy 18 bulbs in the 3 package sets  

Step-by-step explanation:

Becky has 2 options here. She can buy 3 for $4.20 or 2 for $3.34. We can easily determine the prices because both 2 & 3 are factors of 18.

18 / 3 = 6, so multiply 6 * 4.20 to see that 18 bulbs will cost $25.20

18 / 2 = 9, so multiply 9 * 3.34 to see that 18 bulbs will cost $30.06

Now, we can see that buying sets of 3 is cheaper, we need to determine how much we are saving by choosing the cheaper option. (Use subtraction)

$30.06 - $25.20 = $4.86

Becky saves $4.86 by choosing to buy 18 bulbs in the 3 package sets

Answer:

1) b, c, d

2) d

3) a, c, d

Step-by-step explanation:

Just find the number that can divide by the whole. Say the question was

A pet shop have 20 pets. The same amount of pets are in each room. How many rroms could there be?

If there were 4 rooms, 5 pets would be in each. 20÷4=5. 4 goes into 20 so 4 could be an answer.

If there were 3 rooms, 6 rooms would have 3 pets and 2 would be left over. So it wouldn't work. You just need to find the number that goes into the whole with no remainder.

Bogdan [553]
Let the amount of adult tickets sold be x

Since the total of 380 tickets sold consists of the amount of adult tickets and the amount of children tickets that are 70 fewer:

x + (x - 70) = 380
2x - 70 =380
2x = 450
x = 225

Therefore, the amount of adult tickets sold is 225

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of tickets for international flights = 36

Total number of tickets = 95

The probability that a randomly selected airline ticket is for an international flight = 36 / 95 = 0.3789

The probability that a randomly selected airline ticket is for an international flight as a percent rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent = 0.3789 x 100 = 37.9%

% of males surveyed = 0.236 + 0.218 = 0.454 = 45.4%

% of males surveyed who prefer chicken = 0.236 out of 0.454 = 0.236 / 0.454 = 0.5198 = 51.58% = 52.0%

<em>hope this helps~</em>
