Answer:
cost of one medium drink = $3.80
cost of one large popcorn = $6.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let D = cost of one medium drink
Let P = cost of one large popcorn
If a couple bought 2 medium drinks and a large popcorn for $13.85:
⇒ 2D + P = 13.85
If a family bought 3 medium drinks and 2 large popcorn for a total of $23.90:
⇒ 3D + 2P = 23.90
Rewrite 2D + P = 13.85 to make P the subject:
⇒ P = 13.85 - 2D
Substitute into 3D + 2P = 23.90 and solve for D:
⇒ 3D + 2(13.85 - 2D) = 23.90
⇒ 3D + 27.7 - 4D = 23.90
⇒ D = 3.8
Substitute found value of D into P = 13.85 - 2D to find P:
⇒ P = 13.85 - (2 x 3.8) = 6.25
Therefore,
cost of one medium drink = $3.80
cost of one large popcorn = $6.25
Answer: 37 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
14/1÷3/8=?
Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal (inverse) of the second fraction.
Take the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping the numerator and denominator and changing the operation to multiplication. Then the equation becomes
14/1 × 8/3=?
For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get
14×8/1×3 = 112/3
This fraction cannot be reduced.
The fraction
112/3
is the same as
112÷3
Convert to a mixed number using
long division so
112/3=37 1/3
Therefore:
14/1 ÷ 3/8=37 1/3
5 because 25 divided by 5 is 5
