Answer: you bought 9 burgers and 16 tacos
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of burgers that you bought.
Let y represent the number of tacos that you bought.
You buy a total of 25 burgers and tacos. It means that
x + y = 25
The burgers cost $3.50 each and the tacos cost $2.25 each. The total cost of the burgers and tacos that you bought is $67.50. It means that
3.5x + 2.25y = 67.5- - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 25 - y into 1, it becomes
3.5(25 - y) + 2.25y = 67.5
87.5 - 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5
- 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5 - 87.5
- 1.25y = - 20
y = - 20/ - 1.25
y = 16
x = 25 - y = 25 - 16
x = 9
Answer: 3 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that for example 2/4=4/8 so it is multiplied by 2. In this problem the fractions are 2 2/4 and 6 1/8. We are subtracting so you would first multiply the fraction that’s going to subtracted from the other fraction 2 3/4= 2 6/8. Now that we have our fractions we can subtract 6 1/8-2 6/8 this would leave us with 3.375 which is equal to 3 3/8.
