I found the answer to this by first dividing 34 by 4 to get 8.5. We already know what 4 divided by 4 is. For every one pound of almonds, it costs $8.50. Since we know that we need to find out how much it costs for 5 pounds of almonds, we simply multiply 8.5 by 5 to get 42.5. It costs $42.50 to buy 5 pounds of almonds.
X=24 ........................
First you have to find a common denominator which is 4.
6 2/4 + 3 1/4 = 9 3/4
So your final answer is 9 3/4
Hope this helps!!!!
