Answer:
56
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume each person in the group must have 1 pencil AND 1 eraser each.
Since you have more pencils than erasers, then the limiting factor is the number of erasers. So a group of 56 people will have 1 pencil And 1 eraser and Clare will have 24 pencils left over (assuming Clare has her own pencil and eraser - if not then the group size is 55 assuming Clare is not in the group)
sorry if it's too confusing
Answer:
You add the numerators so 5 + 5 is 10. So its 10/9. We only added the numerators because the denominators were the same. So then 10/9 simplified by minusing 9 from ten because ten is the denominator the answer is:
1 1/9

Answer:
50 nickels, 20 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
System of equations (q = # of quarters, n = # of nickels):
<em>q + n = 70, 0.25q + 0.05n = 7.50</em>
the first equation can be changed to q = 70 - n, so we are able to <em>substitute q with 70 - n</em>.
So, it will look like <em>0.25*70 - 0.25n + 0.05n = 7.50</em>. This can be simplified to <em>0.2n = 10</em>, which means that n = 50.
Knowing that we can solve <em>q + 50 = 70</em>, which means that q = 20.
