Answer:

9 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Pounds of bananas=2 7/8

=23/8

Pounds of apple=3 1/2

=7/2

2 bags of oranges=2 3/4 each

11/4 each.

Total pounds of oranges=2(11/4)

=22/4

Total pounds of fruits Marisol bought from the market=pounds of bananas+pounds of apples+pounds of oranges

=28/8+7/2+22/8

Find the L.C.M and add them

The L.C.M=8

Total pounds of fruits =28+28+22/8

=78/8

=9 6/8

Equivalent to

9 3/4

If I bought shoes for 32.30 with 15% off 7%sales tax a 25dollar gift card but had a coupon that was forgotten for 5%off the orig
Otrada [13]

Answer:

 $4.37 cash outlay

 $29.37 total amount paid, partly with gift card

Step-by-step explanation:

The discount was ...

  0.15 × $32.30 = $4.845 ≈ $4.85

So the price to which tax is added is ...

  $32.30 -4.85 = $27.45

The amount of tax is 7% of this value, or ...

  tax = $27.45 × 0.07 = $1.9215 ≈ $1.92

So, payment is made on the amount ...

  $27.45 + 1.92 = $29.37

$29.37 is the total amount paid.

If $25 is paid using a gift card, then the cash outlay is $4.37.

_____

Usually only a single coupon can be applied to a given purchase. Since the 15% store discount exceeds the amount of the 5% coupon left at home, it makes more sense to claim the 15% store discount and save the 5% coupon for another time.

__

<em>Alternate interpretation</em>

If, by some magic, both discounts could be applied, then the amount to be paid is $27.65, of which $2.65 exceeds the gift card amount. The calculation proceeds the same way, except that 20% is used instead of 15%.

A certain brand of golf balls comes in packs of 24. Each pack has three yellow golf balls in it. Willam orders 360 golf balls on
iogann1982 [59]

Start by taking the total number of golf balls, 360, and dividing it by how many golf balls come in each pack, to find the number of packs.


360 ÷ 24 = 15


So there are 15 packs, each with 3 yellow golf balls.


15 · 3 = 45


Meaning 45 of the golf balls would be yellow
