Remark The trick to this question is realizing what you took 1/3 of. Did you take it of the 150000 or is it 1/3 of some total you have to find. I don't think you could come up with a third choice.
It turns out that the answer is 1/3 of a number you don't know.
Equation (1/3) x = 150000 Multiply both sides by 3 3*(1/3) x = 150000 * 3 x = 150000 * 3 x = 450000
Conclusion The amount the company makes is 450000 dollars / year.
C. Since 8 magazines are areiving each month (n) and the total is 56, all you have to do is multiply 8 by n and you get 56, the actual answer would be 7 though.
Divide 24 by 6 because that is how many numbers are on the cube which would equal 4 Then multiply 4 and 2 because that's how many possibilities there are of rolling a number less than 4 and is even and the solution is 8
