Answer:
30 strawberry sundaes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know there is a total of 70 sundaes.
3 sundaes will be strawberry.
4 sundaes will be choclate.
When you add 3 and 4 together, you get 7. This is your total ratio.
So 3/7 of the sundaes are strawberry.
And 4/7 of sundaes are choclate.
We know there is a total of 70 sundaes.
The total ratio we figured out is 7.
If the total sundaes is 70, and the total ration is 7. Then the total sundaes is 10 times bigger than the ratio.
This means we need to multiply the 3 strawberry sundaes and 4 choclate sundaes by 10.
3*10=30
4*10=40
So there are 30 strawberry sundaes and 40 choclate sundaes.
We need to find the strawberry sundae amount, so the answer is 30.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Calculating (5 x 2) violates the order of operations
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the order of operations, multiplies all have equal priority. Therefore, they must be evaluated left to right, not right to left. Evaluating (5 x 2) first is incorrect, and instead (9 x 5) should be calculated first.
Answer:
61 , 63 , 65 , 67
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the least even number be denoted by x. The sum of the four consecutive even numbers would be:
(x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) (x + 6) = 256
First, simplify. Combine all like terms:
x + x + x + x + 2 + 4 + 6 = 256
4x + 12 = 256
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
First, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:
4x + 12 (-12) = 256 (-12)
4x = 256 - 12
4x = 144
Next, divide 4 from both sides of the equation:
(4x)/4 = (144)/4
x = 144/4
x = 61
61 is your first number. Find the next 3 consecutive numbers:
x = 61
x + 2 = 63
x + 4 = 65
x + 6 = 67
Check:
61 + 63 + 65 + 67 = 256
256 = 256

You could do -1/-2 times -5/-4 which would be 5/8
