The first drop box answer is A. The second one is about 18,000
Let number of plastic containers collected by fourth grade= x
Then number of plastic containers collected by fifth grade students=x-216
OR
If number of plastic container collected by fifth grade is y
then number of plastic container collected by fourth grade=y+216
So, we can write it as follows
⇒ number of plastic containers collected by fourth grade= number of plastic containers collected by fifth grade +216
Which property of multiplication is shown ?
11 × 1
The number is less than 190,000 and greater than 180,000
5,000 more than the number has 187 thousands
2000 less than the number has 4 hundreds
180, 000 <n> 190, 000
180,000 + 2000 = n = 5000-187, 000
182,000 = n = 182, 000
Or,
180, 000 <n> 190,000
n + 5000= 187, 000 n – 2000 = 180, 000
n= 187, 000- 5000 n = 180, 000 + 2000
n= 182, 000 n= 182, 000
Set up a proportion
160 mi/ 3.2 hrs ≈ 300 mi/x hrs
cross multiply and solve for x and you get x≈6
It will take them 6 hours
