Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let no. of pens be x.
Pens : x
Pencils: x+8
Total: 2x+8
Student takes 1 pen and 5 pencils.
Remainder: 2x+8 - 5 -1 = 2x+2
2x+2 = 26
2x= 24
x = 12 (original no. of pens)
x+ 8 = 20 (original no of pencils)
There are 12 pens at first and 20 pencils.
After 1 pen is taken, 11 pens are left.
After 5 pencils are taken, 20-5=15 pencils are left.
Answer:

We have been given that Monet measures the diameter of an Oreo and finds that each cookie is 1.75 inches across. We are asked to find the circumference of an Oreo.
We know that circumference of circle is equal to
, where r represents radius of circle.
We also know that diameter is 2 times radius.

Upon substituting
, we will get:

Using 3.14 as an estimation for π, we will get:


Therefore, the circumference of an Oreo would be 5.495 inches.
