Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Gloria cannot pay for each minute talked but for packages of 200 minutes at the rate of $25 each, we have to make calculations according to these conditions as follows:
Month 1:
Gloria talked on her cell phone for 
. So, she had to buy 2 packages of 
for 
each package.
Hence:
Month 2:
Gloria talked on her cell phone for 
. So, she had to buy again 2 packages of for each package.
Hence:
Month 3:
Gloria talked on her cell phone for 
. So, she had to buy 3 packages of for each package.
Hence:
Then, if we take the total Gloria had to pay for the frist three months, we have:
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we just have to the multiplication and do the simplification (adding up the similar terms) afterwards:
3(x+1)=7(x-2)-3 becomes...
3x + 3 = 7x - 14 - 3
3x + 3 = 7x -17
Then we move all x's on one side and all plain numbers on the other side, we'll move the x's to the right since there's a bigger value there, and will move the plain numbers on the left side, by subtracting 3x and by adding 17 on both sides
3x + 3 - 3x + 17 = 7x -17 + 17 - 3x
20 = 4x
If we isolate x alone we have:
20/4 = x or x = 5
The missing part is the number
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two ways to do this. You could use your calculator to find out the decimal numbers that are equivalent to the two given fractions. Then check which one of the givens falls between these two numbers. I wouldn't do it that way -- not when you are told that the answer has 56 as the denominator. So ...
The best way to do it is to change the two givens so that they have a denominator of 56
3/7 = 3*8/7*8 = 24 / 56
7*7 / 7*8 = 49 / 46
So you need a number that is between 49 and 24
There is only one 27 / 56
