If there are no answer choices, I'll give you a few to work with:
16:52 (divide each number by 3 to get this)
8:26 (divide the above by 2, both sides)
4:13 (divide the above by 2, both sides)
96:312 (multiply the original by 2, both sides)
I think you get the gist.

Answer: 14 is the answer, C.
x = number of packages he bought
y = number of popsicles in each package
Here are the two equations:
xy = 54
x = 3 + y
Using the substitution method, you can solve them to find x and y.
(3 + y)y = 54,
3y + y^2 = 54
y^2 + 3y - 54 = 0
Solve the quadriatic equation:
(y +9)(y - 6) = 0
y = -9, 6.
Plug y into: xy = 54
x(-9) = 54, x = -6.
x(6) = 54, x = 9.
So he bought 9 packages of popsicles, bc you can't bye -6 packages.
2 3/10 = 2.3
To get this number as a percent, we need to multiply it by 100: 2.3 is a whole number, and can be represented by fraction 2.3/1
A percentage is represented by a fraction over 100. So to transform 2.3/1 to a percentage, just multiply both numerator and denominator by 100, and you'll get 230/100.
So 2 3/10 is 230% as a percent.

Nonagon - 9 sides
Sum of interior angle of a polygon is (n-2)180 = x
N is the number of sides, so when you plug in 1260 for x, you get 9 for n
