Identify the corresponding word problem given the equation: x = 10 × 200 A) Frank and ten workers are hired to harvest tomatoes
from a field. If each is given a plot which is 10 by 20 feet in size, what is the total area of the field? Eliminate B) Frank and nine workers are hired to harvest tomatoes from a field. If each is given a plot which is 10 by 20 feet in size, what is the total area of the field? C) Frank and ten workers are hired to harvest tomatoes from a field. The total area of the field is 2000 square feet. If the field is divided equally between the workers, what size plot must each worker harvest? D) Frank and nine workers are hired to harvest tomatoes from a field. The total area of the field is 2000 square feet. If the field is divided equally between the workers, what size plot must each worker harvest?
The original equation is x=10×200 Frank and the # of workers hired= # of workers+Frank x= the total area of the field, not how much each worker has to harvest 10×20=200 9+1=10 10×200=x Solution: B. Frank and nine workers are hired to harvest tomatoes from a field. If each of the workers is given a plot which is 10 by 20 feet in size,what is the total area of the field?
I believe Jamal is correct, because he is just doing it an easy way. Instead of converting the mixed number to an improper fraction he is adding the measurements step by step.
First start off by multiplying $0.62 by 4 to find out the total she paid for all four pounds of beans. This would give you $2.48 spent on beans. Subtract $2.48 from the total amount spent ($8.63). You now have $6.15 left on what she could have spent on 5 pounds of potatoes. Do $6.15 divided by 5 to get an answer of $1.23. Hannah paid $1.23 per pound for the potatoes.
