First set up an equation as your approach. I will use the equation x+4x=24 because that way you are saying that something pluse itself times 4 equals 24 which is what you want.
simplify the equation
5x=24
x=24/5
So you know onw piece will be 24/5 of a foot and the ither qould be that times 4 so 96/24 of a foot. In decimals it would be 4.8 and 19.2
The answer is a. $35. First you multiply 25 by .40. Then you add the product to 25.
Make the same part of the first one
To answer the question, divide the fiber intake during breakfast by the total fiber intake prescribed by the doctor and multiply with 100%. With the given above,
(4 / 25) x 100% = 16%
Thus the fiber intake during breakfast constitutes 16% of the total fiber intake.
In statistics the word "and" symbolized for multiplaction operation and the word "or" symbolized addition operation. so the number of ways can bob choose a fruit from the bowl is :
P = ( 7 x 10 ) + ( 10 x 4 ) + (4 x 7)
P = 138 ways he can choose a fruit from the bowl
