Answer:

The number of basket of apples picked by Harper and Cooper together is  5\frac{1}{4} \ \ Or \ \  5.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of basket picked by Harper = 3.5

Number of basket picked by cooper = 4\frac{1}{4}

We need to find the number of basket of apples picked by Harper and Cooper together.

Solution:

Now we can see that one number is in decimal form and other number is in mixed fraction form so we will convert both the number in simplest fraction form and then solve the same.

Number of basket picked by Harper = 3.5

Now if we divide 7 from from 2 we get the answer as 3.5 so we can say that;

3.5 can be rewritten as \frac{7}{2}

Number of basket picked by Harper = \frac{7}{2}

Number of basket picked by cooper = 4\frac{1}{4}

4\frac{1}{4} can be rewritten as \frac{17}{4}

Number of basket picked by cooper = \frac{17}{4}

Now we can say that;

to find the number of basket of apples picked by Harper and Cooper together we will add Number of basket picked by Harper and Number of basket picked by cooper.

framing in equation form we get;

number of basket of apples picked by Harper and Cooper together = \frac{7}{2}+\frac{17}{4}

now we will use LCM to make the denominator common we get;

number of basket of apples picked by Harper and Cooper together = \frac{7\times2}{2\times2}+\frac{17\times1}{4\times1}=\frac{14}{4}+\frac{17}{4}

Now denominators are common so we will solve the numerators we get;

number of basket of apples picked by Harper and Cooper together = \frac{14+7}{4} = \frac{21}{4} \ \ Or\ \ 5\frac{1}{4} \ \ Or \ \  5.25

Hence the number of basket of apples picked by Harper and Cooper together is  5\frac{1}{4} \ \ Or \ \  5.25.

El administrador de una cafetería sabe que vende diariamente 50 litros de jugo mixto. Para elaborar este jugo se emplean dos pre
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

<em>El administrador debe usar 37.5 litros de jugo al 5% y 12.5 litros de jugo al 25%.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Sistemas de Ecuaciones</u>

Llamamos:

x = litros de jugo al 5% natural

y = litros de jugo al 25% natural

El administrador de la cafetería desea hacer 50 litros de jugo, luego:

x + y = 50                   [1]

Esos 50 litros de jugo deben tener 10% de jugo natural. Como cada parte de x aporta 5% y cada parte de y aporta 25%:

5x + 25y = 10*50 = 500

Dividimos entre 5:

x + 5y = 100             [2]

Restamos [2] menos [1]:

4y = 50

y = 50/4 = 12.5

De [1] tenemos que:

x = 50 - y = 50 - 12.5 = 37.5

El administrador debe usar 37.5 litros de jugo al 5% y 12.5 litros de jugo al 25%.
