Answer:

The farmer bought 36 pigs in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a farmer bought a number of pigs for $ 160, but, however, 8 of them died before he could sell the rest at a profit of 6 per pig, and his total profit was $ 8, to determine how many pigs did he originally buy the following calculation must be performed:

160 + 8 = 168

168/6 = 28

28 + 8 = 36

Thus, the farmer bought 36 pigs in all.

Find the area of the shape below
PSYCHO15rus [73]
It’s 100ft, Area of a square = side times side. Since each side of a square is the same, it can simply be the length of one side squared. If a square has one side of 4 inches, the area would be 4 inches times 4 inches, or 16 square inches.
