The best thing to do is to find the cost of one sweet, and to do this, divide 42 by 7.
42/7= 6
Therefore, one sweet costs 6p.
To find the cost of 8 sweets, you've got to multiply 6 by 8, and this gives you 54p.
Therefore, 8 sweets cost 54p
This is basically just finding unit rate and multiplying.

Answer:
C) 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
First, add 6 to both sides:
3x - 6 (+6) = 36 (+6)
3x = 36 + 6
3x = 42
Next, divide 3 from both sides:
(3x)/3 = (42)/3
x = 42/3
x = 14
c) 14 is your answer.

There are a total of 16 movies to choose from and 6 of them are comedy. This means that you have a 38% of choosing comedy. But the chances of you not choosing comedy is 62%. And since your friend is also choosing, the chance of neither of you not choosing is cut in half.
So, the final answer of neither of you choosing comedy is 31%
(I don't know whether it's dependent or independent)
