Level out the fractions, so Rory walked 62/24, meaning Louise walked 30/24, multiplying the numerator and denominator to equal out the fractions. 62-30=32, so Rory walked 32/24 or 1 1/3 mile further

Mike makes 4 dozen cookies. He brings 75% of them for a party at his school. How many did he bring?

baherus [9]

Answer:

He brought 3 dozen cookies

She ate $\frac{2}{5}$ of the bag of Doritos

She read 25 books

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ Mike makes 4 dozen cookies

∵ He brings 75% of them for a party at his school

- Multiply 75% by 4

∵ 75% = $\frac{75}{100}=\frac{3}{4}$

∴ He brought = $\frac{3}{4}$ × 4

∴ He brought = 3

He brought 3 dozen cookies

∵ Sam bought a bag of Doritos

∵ She ate only 40% of them

∵ 40% = $\frac{40}{100}=\frac{2}{5}$

∴ She ate = $\frac{2}{5}$ × 1

∴ She ate = $\frac{2}{5}$

She ate $\frac{2}{5}$ of the bag of Doritos

∵ Jamie took 50 books from the library

∵ She only read half of her whole stack

- Multiply half by 50

∴ She read = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 50

∴ She read = 25

She read 25 books

Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55
We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55
We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
2y-20y=13.50-70.2
-18y=-56.7
y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars

Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
x+5*3.15=17.55
x+15.75=17.55
x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels

Problem 4.
Let w = number of wood bats sold
Let m = number of metal bats sold

From sales information we have: w + m = 23
24w+30m=606
Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second.
24*(23-m)+30m=606
552-24m+30m=606
6m=54
m=9 = number of metal bats sold
Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.
