Answer: 40
Step-by-step explanation: first make the ratio into a fraction, 2/3
then make 24 into a fraction with the numerator as a variable and the denominator as 24, x/24
then cross multiply 2 and 24.
2x24=48
then divide 48 by 3, 16.
last add the number of lollipops to 16 and the answer is 40.
The CPI increased from 29.6 to 82.4.
The rate of increase, is:
82.4/29.6 = 2.78
Now multiply this rate to the $0.14 price of grapes from 1960.
$0.14 x 2.78 = $0.39
Now to get the amount of increase subtract the new price from the original price:
$0.39 - $0.14 = $0.25 increase.
