Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You are trying to figure out what x is.

So, ignore the fact that x is a letter and think of it as a "?".

Then think, "What number divided by 3 equals 3?"

So, 9 is the answer!

You could also switch the number around, and multiply:

3 x 3 = x or 3 x 3 = ?

The answer is A and D

In answer choice A the fractions are 3/6 and 4/6. In the original equation in fractions are 1/2 and 2/3. The equivalent fraction to 1/2 is 3/6 because 1x3=3 and 2x3=6, therefore 3/6 is equivalent. The equivalent fraction to 2/3 is 4/6 because 2x2=4 and 3x3=6, therefore 4/6 is equivalent.

In answer choice D the fractions are 9/18 and 12/18. In the original equation in fractions are 1/2 and 2/3. The equivalent fraction to 1/2 is 9/18 because 1x9=9 and 2x9=18, therefore 9/18 is equivalent. The equivalent fraction to 2/3 is 12/18 because 2x6=12 and 3x6=18, therefore 12/18 is equivalent.

Hope this helps :D

A concert organizer anticipates selling 4,000 tickets and that a quarter of these will be sold at 20% reduction of original pric

Deffense [45]

Answer:

$ 15.79

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the price of full ticket,

∵ Total number of tickets = 4000,

Quarter of 4000 tickets = $\frac{4000}{4}$ = 1000,

Remaining tickets = 4000 - 1000 = 3000,

Since, if the price of each ticket is reduced by 20%,

Then the new price of each ticket = (100 - 20)% of x

= 80% of x

= 0.80x,

According to the question,

The total price of quarters of ticket + total price of remaining tickets = $ 60000

= 0.80x × 1000 + x × 3000 = 60,000

800x + 3000x = 60,000

3800x = 60,000

⇒ x ≈ 15.79

Hence, the price of full ticket is approximately $ 15.79.

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find out if 1 bag of soil is enough to fill 1 container.

Given:

2/5 of a bag fills 1/3s of a containter.

With the given, multiplying 2/5 by 2.5 represents one. Multiply 1/3 by 2.5 aswell.

Products:

1, and 2.5/3 or 5/6

1 bag can fill 5/6 of a container.

Therefore, 1 bag can't fill 1 container.
