Answer:
1060 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
let the weight of the orange be x, then
pineapple weighs 7x, and also x + 870
equating the 2 expressions for the weight of the pineapple
7x = x + 870 ( subtract x from both sides )
6x = 870 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = 145
The orange weighs 145 grams and the pineapple 145 + 870 = 1015 grams
Total weight of both = 145 + 1015 = 1060 grams
Raul has 56 bouncy balls
he puts the balls into red gift bags and green gift bags
so lets say he puts x number of balls into green gift bags
then we are told that he puts three times as many balls into red gift bags as he puts into green gift bags
so the number of balls he puts into red gift bags is - 3 * x = 3x
the total number of balls = 56
so we can write the following equation
x + 3x = 56
4x = 56
x = 56/4
x = 14
therefore the amount of balls he puts into green bags is - 14 balls
Answer:
To find a 20 percent tip quickly, first find 10%, and then multiply it by 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find 10%, move the decimal 1 place to the left. So 10% of 53.82 is 5.382. Let's round that to 5.4 to simplify. Multiply it by 2 to get to 20% which is 10.8 and round to the nearest dollar to make $11.
