4. The cost of a new house is being reduced 22%

olganol [36]

1. Ok so first I would find 22% of 212,000 to do that you do: 22 divide 100 = 0.22

2. Now that you’ve turned 22% into a decimal as 0.22 you find what 22% of 212,000 is like so: 0.22x212,000 =46,640

3. Now that you have to reduce 212,000 but 22% to do this you just subtract: 212,000-46,640= 165,360

They would purchase the house for $165,360

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

180

Step-by-step explanation:

At the beggining, it says they are stacked in 5 layers which means the number of cubes is divisible by 5.

If the number of cubes equals x:

The least amount of sugar cubes the Jones family could have used is $61*2$ which equals 122. The most they couldve used is $61*3$ which equals 183.

Based on the information from the Jones family, x is between 122 and 183.

Based on the information from the Connor's, x is between 176 and 264.

Based on the information from both, x is between 176 and 183. The only number that is divisible by 5 between those numbers is 180 cubes.
