Answer:
The change is a decrease of $2700.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Total Number of people = 27
Amount each person withdrew = $100
The total withdrawn amount by 27 people = 100 × 27
= $2700
Let M be the amount of money in the ATM at the beginning.
As $2700 was drawn from the ATM, therefore, the change the amount of money in the machine will be:
It means the change is a decrease of $2700.
1 + (-5/8) = 3/8
Explanation: If the coffee wasn’t drank it would’ve been at fraction 1 (or 100%)
Since he drank 5/8 of it. The coffee left is now 1-(5/8)
But since the question has asked to give the equation in addition format. Put a plus sign in between the two.
Therefore,
1 + (-5/8)
Solve it,
= 1-(5/8)
= (8-5)/8
= 3/8
Hence the equation is:
1 + (-5/8) = 3/8.

Answer:
The equation should be 8 (x minus 2.75) = 78, and she needs to sell each necklace for $12.50.
Step-by-step explanation:
The contribution margin of each necklace is the difference between its selling price (x) and its cost (2.75). Then the total profit from 8 necklaces would be ...
8(x -2.75)
If Rita wants that profit to be $78, then she needs to solve the equation ...
8(x -2.75) = 78 . . . . correct equation
The solution is ...
x -2.75 = 9.75 . . . . divide by 8
x = 12.50 . . . . . . . . add 2.75
She needs to sell each necklace for $12.50.

The best way to compare fractions is to find the LCM (The Lowest Common Denominator) of each of the fractions. This can be done simply by listing the multiples of the denominators.
Multiples:
3: 3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27...210,213
10:10,20,30,40,60,70,80...210,220
6: 6,12,18,24,30,36,42,48...210,216
7: 7,14,21,28,35,42,49...210,217
The LCM is 210:
3*70=210
10*21=210
6*35=210
7*30=210
Now, we must do what we do the denominators to the numerators:
1*70=70
70/210
2*21=42
42/210
1*35=35
=35/210
2*30=60
=60/210
The fraction with the largest numerator has the greatest value; In this case it 1/3 or 70/210.
Hope this helps.
