Jamil has already 6 3/4 cups of butter.
He need 12. SO in order to get the needed butter, we subtract 6 3/4 to 12.
= 12 - 6 3/4
= 11 4/4 - 6 3/4
= 5 1/4
So Jamil needs 5 1/4 cups of butter to achieve the 12 cups.
The answer is three units
Answer: I think it's 960.
Step-by-step explanation:
Add up all of the numbers:
(160.2+163.2+157.8+159) = 640.2
Find the average by diving 640.2 by how many numbers there are:
640.2 ÷ 4 = 160.05
Round that average^^:
160.05 >>> 160
Multiply by how many numbers there will be:
In this case, your job is to estimate how far Jose ran in 6 months, not just those 4. So instead of multiplying the average (160) by 4, you'd multiply it by 6.
160 x 6= 960
The key thing to look for to determine whether a sequence is geometric is to see whether the ratio between consecutive terms - the number I would multiply one term by to get the next - is constant.
By inspection, we see that the fourth answer choice satisfies that, as
Why not the first? We have 
The third choice is not a geometric sequence, but rather an arithmetic sequence, where the difference between consecutive terms is constant. Just to make sure that it isn't geometric, we compute 
The second sequence is not geometric (although it does eventually converge to 1, but not its corresponding series), as
