700 because if it was 750 it would be closer to 800 but it is under 50
The Median is the middle value.
Arrange the numbers in order from smallest to largest:
Seattle: 23.78 , 32.46, 40.30, 45.79, 49.42, 55.14
Since there is an even number, the median is found by adding the 2 middle numbers and dividing by 2.
Median for Seattle: 40.30 + 45.79 = 86.09 / 2 = 43.045
Now do the same for Las Vegas:
2.33, 3.72, 3.84, 4.11, 5.62, 8.79
Median for Las Vegas: 3.84 + 4.11 = 7.95 / 2 = 3.975
Difference: 43.045 - 3.975 = 39.07
The answer is B.
Pls. see attachment. I created that table for easy monitoring and understanding.
Yellow cells are sums that are even.
Orange cell are sums that are multiples of 3.
Yellow cells w/ orange texts are sums that are both even and multiples of 3.
Ten cakes costs $2.19 (pounds, but I don't have a pounds symbol on my computer) because if you divide $2.10 by seven you get $0.3, and if you add 3×0.3 (because we have seven, and we need to add three more to get ten) we get $0.9.
0.9+2.10=2.19
Let x=the first number
Then x+7=second number
And 4(x+7)+2=third number (2 more than 4 times the second)
Now we are told that:
x+(x+7)+(4(x+7)+2)=85 get rid of parentheses
x+x+7+4x+28+2=85 simplify
6x+37=85 subtract 37 from each side
6x+37-37=85-37
6x=48
x=8---first number
x+7=8+7=15 second number
4(x+7)+2=4*15+2=62 third number

8+15+62=85
85=85
