To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.
<span>1. We assume, that the number 150 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task. </span>
<span>2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. </span>
<span>3. If 150 is 100%, so we can write it down as 150=100%. </span>
<span>4. We know, that x is 16% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=16%. </span>
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 150=100%
2) x=16%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
150/x=100%/16%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for what is 16% of 150
150/x=100/16
<span>(150/x)*x=(100/16)*x - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>150=6.25*x - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (6.25) to get x
<span>150/6.25=x </span>
<span>24=x </span>
x=24
<span>now we have: </span>
<span>16% of 150=24</span>
6(4.4) = 6 x 4.4 = 26.4
The one with the parenthesis would be the distributive property. I'm not 100% sure, though. Hope this helps.
The answer is the third option.
The explanation is shown below:
1. You must keep on mind the information given in the exercise:
- She bough 3 pounds of coffee.
- She bought 2 pounds of chocolate.
- She spent a total of $24.
2. Therefore, you can call the price per pound of coffee
and the price per pound of chocolate
.
3. When you multiply 3 pounds by the price per pound of coffee, you obtain the amount of money she spent for 3 pounds. When you multiply 2 pounds by the price per pound of chocolate, you obtain the amount of money she spent for 2 pounds. If you add both amounts, you obtain the total spent, which was $24.
4. Therefore, you can express this as following:

Prisms and pyramids are geometric shapes that have flat sides, flat bases and angles. So those are some similarities. However, the bases and side faces on prisms and pyramids differ. Prisms have two bases while pyramids only have one. There are a variety of pyramids and prisms, so not all shapes in each category look the same.
