Everyone got 4 cans a day but one person got 5 cans everyday. How? 125/5, cans collect/number of day equals 25 cans a day if you divide by 6 you get 4.1 and they can't collect a fraction of a can so then you do 6*4=24 but you need 25 a day so one of the people got an extra can.

Answer: They collected 750 cans.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Number of cans collected by Cathy: 125 </em>
  • <em>Number of volunteers (including Cathy) : 6 </em>

So, calculate the total number of can that all the volunteers collected we have to simply multiply the number of cans that Cathy collected (125 ,Since each volunteer collected about the same number of cans) by the number of volunteers (6 including Cathy).  

125 x 6 = 750  cans.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

I need help with 20.
irinina [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

why ? you did it right there already.

the numerator is the top part of the fraction, the "counting" part (how many units of a certain type or size are there).

the denominator (the bottom part) is defining the type or size of units described by the fraction.

so, we are adding 4 to the numerator of 2/5, making it (2+4)/5 = 6/5

what do we need to add to the denominator (the bottom part) to make the fraction have the value of 1/2 ?

so, what x would make 6/x = 1/2 ?

6 = x/2

x = 6×2 = 12

so, we need to get 12 in the denominator, where we have currently 5.

therefore, we need to add 12-5 = 7 to it.

so that

6/(5+7) = 6/12 = 1/2
