Work : product of 9 and t
Answer: 9t
Since 1/6 of the day was spent in the flower bed and 2/3 of that was spreading mulch, we need to find 2/3 of 1/6 to find out how much of the day was spreading the mulch.
In math "of" means times
"is" means equals
2/3 of 1/6 is
translates to
2/3 x 1/6 =
Now we just multiply the numerators across and denominators across then reduce if possible...
2/3 x 1/6 = 2/18
2 and 18 both divide by 2 so it reduces
2/18 = 1/9
Tom spent 1/9 of the day spreading mulch.
5a + s = 2662
a + s = 1198
4a = 1464
a = 366
5(366) + s = 2,662
1830 adult tickets sold
2662 - 1830 = 832
832 student tickets sold
10-1.75 = 0.65x
9.25 =0.65x
9.25/0.65=x
then simplify or find the exact solution
