Answer:

  • 150 short-sleeved shirts
  • 100 long-sleeved shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S and L represent the numbers of short- and long-sleeved shirts ordered.

The expected earnings were ...

  5S +10L = 1750

The number sold was ...

  (1/3)S + (1/2)L = 100

We can multiply the first equation by 1/5 and the second equation by 6 to put the equations into standard form:

  • S +2L = 350
  • 2S +3L = 600

Subtracting the second equation from twice the first gives ...

  2(S +2L) -(2S +3L) = 2(350) -(600)

  L = 100 . . . . . . simplify

  2S +3(100) = 600

  S = 150

150 short-sleeved and 100 long-sleeved shirts were ordered.

First we would change the fractions into decimals and compare them. That way it would be easy to solve when needed.

1/2=0.50
5/8=0.625
1/8=0.125
   
Now we can see that 1/8 (0.125) is the smallest, followed by 1/2 (0.50), and 5/8 the largest. Now we can match the sizes with the insects.

Since the tiger beetle is the largest we will place that with the length of 5/8 since that is the largest.

The carpenter ant is second largest so it would be matched with 1/2

The aphid is the smallest so that would be with 1/8 as the smallest
