So, let's look at the problem once again.
8%, or 8/100 of the bag were green jelly beans.
Let's see what we can do to find out a number of other jelly beans, not including the green ones.
We know that 92% of jelly-beans are not green.
92% is 11.5 times more than 8%
(92/8)
24 (or 8%) times 11.5 = 276
276 - number of jelly beans that are not green.
276 plus 24 = 300.
Answer: 300 jelly beans were in one bag.
The correct answer is 5 1/2 because if it weren’t simplified it would be 6/2 which makes the numerator the greatest.
That would be 7.8 (7.800) hope this helps! ;)
The correct answer choices are B and C.
Here is the way these numbers would fall on a vertical number line justifying why these 2 answers are correct.
-1500 A
-1600
-1700
-1800
-1900 B
-2000
-2100
-2200
-2300 C
You can see where each of these submarines is located. 0 is sea level.
Hi,
4 > 0, it's correct so 4 is a solution.
0 < 7
, the same as the first.
