First, let’s all acknowledge that whoever comes up with problems like this WANTS kids to hate math...smh
I’m sure there is a prettier way to solve this, but here’s what I did:
8(2.25) + 3(22.50) =
18 + 67.50 = 85.50 per “set” of balls/jerseys
400/85.50 = 4.678 = number of “sets” he can buy. Round down to 4 so we have room for tax.
85.5 x 4 “sets”= $342
Tax on 342 is 0.06 x 342 = 20.52
$342 + 20.52 = $362.52 spent
Basketballs = 4 sets x 8 balls per set= 32
Jerseys = 4 sets x 3 jerseys per set= 12
32 basketballs, 12 jerseys, $362.52 spent
0.0028 Is the answer to What is 35 percent of 125.
Answer:
What do you need help with?
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to see the second step of the proof, so we know what needs to be justified. It would also be nice to see the list of answer choices. I'll never understand how someone who can't answer the question and has to ask someone else can then go ahead and decide that the person helping him only needs to see parts of the question.
