Answer:
1 pound of avocado costs $1.8.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is just a simple division problem. We jest need to divide the given values to get the answer. For our problem, to know the price of 1 pound of avocado, we need to divide the $9 by 5 since the problem stated that the price of 5 pounds of avocados is $9.
Given:
5 pounds avocados = $9
Required:
cost of 1 pound of avocado
Solution:
$9 / 5 pounds = $1.8/pound
1 pound avocado = $1.8
Notice from the first line of solution, the unit became $ per pound. This means that we did the right operation since we are looking for the price per pound.
To check if we computed for the correct value, we should multiply $1.8 to 5. If the answer from doing this is $9, then our answer is correct.
Checking:
$1.8 * 5 = $9
Therefore, the cost of 1 pound of avocado is $1.8

Answer:
6.14125(0.15) = 0.9211875 (below 1)
6.14125 - 0.92118 = 5.22007
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
1. 10(.15)=1.5
2. 10-1.5=8.5
3. 8.5 (.15)=1.275
4. 8.5-1.275=7.225
continuation the sequence
5) 7.225 (0.15) = 1.08375
6) 7.225 - 1.08375 = 6.14125
7) <u> 6.14125(0.15) = 0.9211875 (below -one)</u>
8 ) <u> 6.14125 - 0.9211875 = 5.2200625 (get number 5)</u>
9) 5.2200625(0.15) = 0.783009
10) 5.2200625 - 0.783009 = 4.4370532

Answer:
720 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
On her blueprint, which is 1/20 the size of the actual garden
the width of the garden is 36 inches.
What is the width of the actual garden?
Let width of the actual garden = x
1/20 of x = 36
1/20 * x = 36
x = 36 ÷ 1/20
x = 36 * 20/1
x = 720
x = 720 inches
The width of the actual garden = 720 inches
