Answer:

12 girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

24 ÷ 2 = 12

(This is divided to find out 1 part of the whole class as ⅓)

⅓ = 12

1 (whole) take away ⅔ = ⅓

Since ⅔ + ⅓ = 1

⅓ = fraction of girls in class

1 part = 12

So ⅓ = 12 girls out of 36 total students

Hope this helps. :)

A coffee distributor plans to mix some Rift Valley coffee that normally sells for $12.10 per pound with some Mexican Shade Grown
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

24 pounds of Rift Valley coffee

26 pounds of Mexican Shade Grown coffee

Step-by-step explanation:

If R is pounds of Rift Valley coffee, and M is pounds of Mexican Shade Grown coffee, then:

R + M = 50

12.10 R + 13.10 M = 12.62 (50)

Substitute:

12.10 R + 13.10 (50 − R) = 12.62 (50)

12.10 R + 655 − 13.10 R = 631

R = 24

M = 26
