- - Let's solve for C.
Starting off with our equation:
Transform:
Solve for that:
Solve for that for the last time and your answer is
4 dimes=4 *10=40 cents
2.25-0.40=1.85
1.85=0.05 times number of nickles
times 100 both sides
185=5 times number of nickels
divide both sides by 5
37=number of nickles
has 37 nickles
The easiest way to do this would be to imagine that Jolie has 100 marbles. If Mary has 40% fewer, that means she has 60 marbles. Then if they combine all their marbles into a single bag, they will have 160 marbles, of which 100 are Jolie's. So the % that is Jolie's is 100/160 = 0.625 = 62.5%.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3 pieces such that each piece is 2 cm longer then the next...
x , x + 2, x + 4
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 30
3x + 6 = 30
3x = 30 - 6
3x = 24
x = 24/3
x = 8
x + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10
x + 4 = 8 + 4 = 12
check...
8 + 10 + 12 = 30
18 + 12 = 30
30 = 30 (correct)...it checks out
the ribbon lengths are : 8 cm, 10 cm, and 12 cm
