Answer:

213 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Paper books = $1.45 each

$ 1.45 = 1 paper book

$ 1 = 1/1.45 paper book

$98.6 = 98.6/1.45 paper books

$ 98.6 = 68 paper books

Hardback books = $ 2.25 each

$2.25 = 1 Hardbook

$1 = 1/2.25 hardbook

$ 328.10 = 328.10/2.25 hardbooks

$ 328.10 = 145.822 hard books

Number of books cannot be a decimal number, so the value has to be estimated to a nearer whole number.

$ 328.10 = 145 hard books

Total number of books bought = (145 + 68)books= 213 books (Answer)

How do you solve this ?
saveliy_v [14]

When given a value of the variable, we replace each instance of the variable in the problem with that number. In this case, the expression becomes:


\frac{3^2 + 3}{3 - 1}


After this, we merely need to simplify the answer.


\frac{9 + 3}{3 - 1}


\frac{12}{2}


Simplifying 12/2 gives us the answer 6.

Of my 135 students, 20% have cowboy boots. How many students wear cowboy boots?
Alekssandra [29.7K]
We can start with the whole of 135, and find out 10% of that.

135/10 or 135 divided by 10= 13.5

This means that 1/10 of it is equal to 13.5, and that’s 10%. To find 20%, you want to do 13.5 x 2, and this will get you 27.

The answer is 27.
