First, change everything into minutes.
12 noon is 12 by 60 which = 720 minutes.
9am is 9 by 12 which = 540 minutes.
X is now your number of minutes before noon.So noon - x is the next step:
720 - x
20 minutes ago it was 720 - x - 20
720 - x - 20= 540 + 3x (3x because you're looking for 3 times as many minutes)
720 - 20 - 540=4x (you combine all the like numbers and variables)
160 = 4x
160/4= x
40 = x
Your answer is 40 minutes

2 feet = 24 inches. 24 times 15 is 360 inches, or 30 feet.
3 meters = 300 centimeters. 300 times 32 is 9600 centimeters, or 96 feet.
I think you got the choices mixed up a bit, the one with inches is 360, and the one with centimeters is 9600.
Answer: Option B is the cheaper deal (the 12 batteries for $14.76)
===========================================================
Explanation:
For the first deal we can say
3 batteries = 4.80 dollars
3/3 batteries = 4.80/3 dollars .... divide both sides by 3
1 battery = 1.60 dollars
The unit price for the first deal is $1.60 per battery.
----------------------------------
For the second deal we could say
12 batteries = 14.76 dollars
12/12 batteries = 14.76/12 dollars .... divide both sides by 12
1 battery = 1.23 dollars
The unit price for the first deal is $1.23 per battery.
This is the cheaper deal.
----------------------------------
So in short, you're dividing the total cost over the number of items to get the unit price.
