Answer:

1466⅔ mg

Step-by-step explanation:

oz : mg

6 : 550

16 : X

X/16 = 550/6

X = 550/6 × 16

X = 4400/3

X = 1466⅔ mg

Answer:

1466 2/3 mg of sodium

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

550 mg         x mg

------------- = --------------

6 ounces       16 ounces

Using cross products

550* 16 = 6x

Divide each side by 6

550*16 /6 = 6x/6

8800/6 =x

4400/3 =x

Change to a mixed number

1466 2/3 mg of sodium

Age If you add Natalie's age and Fred's age, the result is 40. If you add Fred's age to 4 times
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Fred is 28 yrs old. Nathalie is 12yrs old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Nathalie's age be x

Let Fred's age be a

x+a=40 yrs•••••1

4x+a=76yrs•••••2

a=40-x

Substitute a for 40-x in equation (2)

4x+40-x=76

3x=76-40

3x=36

x=12

a=40-12

a=28
