It is easier to add 50 to a number than 48 because 50 has a zero in it which makes an addition simpler.

48 + 34 =     borrow 2 from 34 and add to 48

= 50 + 32      50 + 32 is 82

= 82

Furkat [3]

Division is one of the four fundamental arithmetic operations. With the leftover flour of 7.45oz, charlie can make approximately 8 muffins.

<h3>What is Division?</h3>

The division is one of the four fundamental arithmetic operations, which tells us how the numbers are combined to form a new one.

A.) The total flour Charlie has was 40 oz, out of this he used 18.3 oz of flour. The amount of flour left now would be 21.7 (40-18.3).

Since a single muffin uses 0.95 oz of flour, therefore, the number of muffins Charlie made will be,

Number of muffins = 21.7/0.95 = 22.84 ≈ 23 muffins

B.) When Charlie had 7.45 oz of flour leftover, then the number of muffins would be,

Number of muffins = 7.45/0.95 = 7.84 ≈ 8 muffins

Hence, with the leftover flour of 7.45oz charlie can make approximately 8 muffins.

A factory sells backpacks for $35 each. The cost to make 1 backpack is $15. In addition to the cost of making backpacks, the fac
Otrada [13]

Answer:9400 backpacks

\geqStep-by-step explanation

since the number of packs to be sold in a  is represented by x,

selling price for 1 week = 35x

cost price for 1 week = 15x

profit = 35x-15x = 20x

additional cost of production = 11,000

this implies that 20x - 11,000 \geq 7800

20x - 11,000 \geq 7,800

20x \geq 7800+ 11000

20x \geq 18,800

x \geq 18800/2

x \geq 9,400

at least 9,400 packs have to be sold each week to make a profit of $7800
