Luke bought 256 ounces of strawberries. he divided them evenly between 8 different pies.

pychu [463]

Answer:

2 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Luke bought 256 ounces of strawberries. He divided them evenly between 8 different pies. We are asked to find the pounds of strawberries that Luke put on each pie.

First of all, we will convert 256 ounces into pounds.

We know that 1 pound equals 16 ounces. To convert 256 ounces into pounds, we need to divide 256 by 16.

$256$ $ounces=\frac{256}{16}$ $pounds=16$ $pounds$

Now we will divide 16 pounds by 8 to find number of strawberries put on each pie.

$Pounds$ $of$ $strawberries$ $on$ $each$ $pie=\frac{16}{8}$

$Pounds$ $of$ $strawberries$ $on$ $each$ $pie=2$

Therefore, Luke put 2 pounds strawberries on each pie.

Micaela is 2 years older than Sam. In 4 years, the sum of their ages will be 40. How old is Micaela now?

Ann [662]

Answer:

The error is: The solution shows the Sam's age and the problem asked for Micaela's age.

Solution fixed: $m=17$

Micaela is 17 years old now.

Step-by-step explanation:

The error is: The solution shows the Sam's age and the problem asked for Micaela's age.

To fix the error, you can set up these equations based on the information given:

$m=s+2$

$(m+4)+(s+4)=40$

Solve for "s" from the first equation:

$s=m-2$

Substitute this equation into the second equation:

$(m+4)+((m-2)+4)=40$

Now you need to solve for "m":

$m+4+(m-2+4)=40\\m+4+m+2=40\\m+m=40-4-2\\2m=34\\m=\frac{34}{2}\\\\m=17$

Micaela is 17 years old now.
