Answer:4
Step-by-step explanation:
1:6
Divide 6 by 24
you will get 4
Times your answer by 1 and then u will get your final answer
1)
a.
60 ounces = 3 pounds
So no, you don’t have as much fruit as you need.
b.
60 ounces —> 3 pounds
X ounces —> 4 pounds
Cross product :
(60 x 4) / 3 —> 240/3 = 80
So in order to have 4 pounds of fruits, you need 80 ounces of fruits.
You already have 60 ounces of fruits.
X + 60 = 80
80 - 60 = X
20 = X
You need 20 more ounces to have 4 pounds of fruits.

Let's set up an equation.
smaller number = x
larger number = 2x - 5
Now set up the equation so that the larger number plus the smaller number adds up to 43.
x + 2x - 5 = 43
3x - 5 = 43 ( I added the x and 2x)
3x = 48 ( I added 5 to both sides)
x = 16 (I divided both sides by 3)
Now let's check it. Substitute 16 for every time there is an x.
16 + 2(16) - 5 = 43
16 + 32 - 5 = 43
48 - 5 = 43
43 = 43
It checks. x is equal to 16, so that means:
smaller number = 16
larger number = 27
Hope this helps =)
The answer is 53 because if you think about it
