1 ton is equivalent to 2000 pounds
we have to find how many pounds 3 3/8 tons are equal to
if 1 ton --> 2000 pounds
we can break down the fraction into 3 + 3/8
then 3 tons --> 2000 x 3 = 6000 pounds
3/8 ton ---> 2000 x 3/8 = 
after adding 6000 + 750 = 6750 pounds
answer is 6750 pounds
Answer:
30x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
25-5=20
20-5=15
-5 -10 -15 -20 -25
25 20 15 10 5
I hope that helped you
Answer:
90 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
15 x 6 = 90
Multiply the first equation by -2. It turns into 4x+18y=50 and the other one stays -4x-9y=-23. Then you "eliminate" the equations by "adding" them. Set it up like this:
4x+18y=50
+
-4x-9y=-23
4x-4x= 0. 18y-9y= 9y and 50-23= 27
SO: 9y= 27 and y= 3
And then you plug that in to one equation: 4x +18(3)= 50. 4x= 50-(18*3)
4x= -4, so x=-1.
Plug it back in to check!
Hope this helps. Happy solving! :)
I've been waiting for someone to ask this question. It's one of my favorite questions to answer.
percent means out of 100 so 1% = 1/100 and 40%=40/100 or 1/25
so for percent of a number, 'of' means multiply so 40% of 500= 40/100 times 500 or 20000/100 or 200
if you multiply a fraction by its recipricol (the number fliped upside down) the you will get 1 so if you multiply 1/2 by 2/1 then you will get 1
thus
percent is out of 100 so 1%=1/100 25%=25/100
if you represent 45 out of something as 45/x then you multiply it by the reciprocal of the fraction that is supposed to be equal (1/2 =2/4) then you will get 1
so 45/x times reciprocal of 100/25 then you will get 1/1 or 4500/25x
so you divide to find x and get 180
so 45 is 25% of 180
The following is extra
as stated above 'of' can be taken as multiply so
45 is 25% of 180 can be rewriten as
45=25/100 times 180
but we don't know that 180 is the answer so we replace it with x then solve for x
