Answer: 80 pieces of fruit
Explanation:
Let’s find out the amount of trees Mr Champion has.
He has 14 in total. 1 apple tree and 1 plum tree, and the rest are divided evenly among apricot, pear and peach trees. This means:
1 apple tree + 1 plum tree = 2 trees
14 - 2 = 12 trees
12 / 3 (varieties of trees) = 4
In conclusion, he has
1 apple tree, 1 plum tree, 4 apricot, pear and peach trees.
Now let’s go to the section where he picks the fruit.
6 apricots from 4 trees
10 peaches from 4 trees
3 pears from 4 trees
4 apples from 1 tree
This means:
(6 x 4) + (10 x 4) + (3 x 4) + (4 x 1) = total pieces of fruit picked
24 + 40 + 12 + 4 = total pieces of fruit picked
Now, you add up those four numbers, and you have your answer, 80.
Hope this helps!
The stock price per share was $8.60
Number of shares bought 1000
Total price for the shares:
(Cost per share)*(Number of shares)
=8.60*1000
=$8600
The stock price after 1 year $9.15
Total number of shares is 1000
Current price=(current share price)*(number of shares)
9.15*1000
=$9150
current value=(Current price)-(buying price)
=9150-8600
=$550
Net Profit=(Current value)-(Expenses)
=550-14
=$536
<u>Part A
</u><u />To estimate this, we should first look at our fractions and see if they can be combined to form a whole number. In this case,

and

equal approximately 1. We can add this "1" to the other to full gallons to estimate that the painter needs about
3 gallons.
<u>Part B
</u><u /><u />To find the exact amount, we should first change the mixed numbers to improper fractions. We do this by multiplying the denominator by the whole number, adding the numerator, and placing that value over the denominator.

Now, we need to find the least common denominator. This is the lowest value that both denominators will divide evenly into. In this case, that number is 15.
Next, we should multiply both fractions so that the denominator is that number. Remember that we must also multiply the numerator for the fraction to remain equivalent to its original value.

Now, we can simply add our numerators.

We know that he needs

gallons of paint, but this is not in the most simplified format. To simplify, we need to turn our improper fraction back to a mixed number. To do this, we need to divide our numerator by the denominator to create our whole number, and the remainder becomes our new numerator.

Using that logic, we can see that the painter needs exactly
gallons of paint.
