Answer:

a. Given a number of tablespoons, find the number of cups:

1. Since he needsÂ 2 cups, he canÂ use 2×16=32 tablespoons.

2.Since he needsÂ 1/2 cup, he canÂ use 1/2×16=8 tablespoons.

He needs 1 1/4 cups. 1 cup is 16 tablespoons. 1/4 cup is 1/4×16=4 tablespoons. So altogether he needs 16+4=20 tablespoons.Given a number of cups, find the number of tablespoons:

I already found that 20 tablespoons is 1 1/4 cups. So for 28 tablespoons I need an additional 8 tablespoons, or an additional 1/2 cup. 1 1/4+1/2=1 3/4, so 28 tablespoons gets him 1 3/4 cups. (Alternatively, we might say that 1 tablespoon is 1/16 cups. 1/16×28=28/16, which we can rewrite as 1 12/16 or 1 3/4.)

I notice that to convert from tablespoons to cups, I always divide by 16. 6÷16=6/16, which we can write as 1 3/8. (Alternatively,Â 1 tablespoon is 1/16 cups. 1/16×6=6/16, which we can rewrite as 1 3/8.)

A sandwich costs $0.75 more than a container of milk. A customer buys 4 sandwiches and 4 containers of milk. The customer pays $

Step2247 [10]

Assume that the cost of the milk is x.
We are given that a sandwich costs 0.75$ more than the cost of milk. This means that:
cost of sandwich = cost of milk + 0.75
cost of sandwich = x + 0.75

Now, the customer bought 4 sandwiches and 4 containers of milk at the cost of 7$.
We will transform this into an equation as follows:
total cost = cost of 4 sandwiches + cost of 4 containers of milk
7 = 4(x+0.75) + 4(x)

Solve the above equation to get x as follows:
7 = 4x + 3 + 4x
7-3 = 8x
8x = 4
x = 0.5

Therefore:
cost of milk = x = $0.5
cost of sandwich = x+0.75 = 0.5+0.75 = $1.25
