Answer:
0.625lb bag of bird seeds
Step-by-step explanation:
She starts with a 3.5 lb bag,
Then she uses 3/4 of the bag, so find the remaining amount in the bag, which would be 1/4 of the original weight;
1/4 * 3.5
= 1/4 * 7/2
= 7/8
Then she removes 0.25 lbs of weight, hence take away 0.25 (the amount removed) from 7/8 (the current weight of the bag).
7/8 - 0.25
= 7/8 - 1/4
= 7/8 - 2/8
= 5/8
So she has a 5/8lb bag of bird seeds or a 0.625lb bag.

Answer:
360
Step-by-step explanation:
Sam obtains a "contribution margin" of $0.50 -0.25 = $0.25 per cookie. That will cover the cost of baking supplies when he sells ...
$90 / ($0.25/cookie) = 360 cookies
Sam needs to sell 360 cookies before he can start making a profit.
_____
If you like, you can find Sam's break-even point by equating revenue and cost. The is the number of cookies Sam must sell for a profit of 0, that is, for non-negative profit.
P = R - C
0 = R - C
R = C
0.50n = 90 +0.25n
0.25n = 90 . . . . subtract 0.25n
n = 90/0.25 = 360 . . . .divide by the coefficient of n
You may notice this is similar to our description above.
