Toillet paper is sold in cases for 36 rolls for $14.99 what is the per price per roll?
Eva8 [605]
Alright, so the unknown value here we want to know is the price of one roll of TP. Let's call it "x".
36x=14.99
Divide both sides by 36 to get the price of a single roll.
x=.41638888....
We have to round this to hundredths because we're talking in cents, so...
x=.42
Each roll of toilet paper costs 42 cents.

#2: 4 cans : $2.36 =  13 : $7.67  SCALE FACTOR: $7.67 divided by $2.36 = 3.25
                                                 Use the SF to multiply the missing information.
                                                 So 4 cans x 3.25 = 13
 
YOU CAN BUY 13 CANS FOR $7.67

#4: 2 eggs: 1 1/2 cups of eggs : 10 pancakes =   :     : 35 pancakes
                                             
SCALE FACTOR: 35 pancakes divided by 10 pancakes= 3.5
Use the SF to multiply the missing information
So: 2 eggs x 3.5 = 7

7 EGGS WILL BE NEEDED TO MAKE 10 PANCAKES

#6: 54 pounds: 1 acre = pounds: 12.5 acres

SCALE FACTOR: 12.5 divided by 1 acre= 12.5
Use the SF to find out the mussing information
So, 54 pounds x 12.5 = 675 pounds

THE FARMER CAN HARVEST 675 POUNDS WITH 12.5 ACRES OF FIELD

#8: 90 miles: 120 minutes (5 hours) = 225 miles : 300 minutes (5 hours) 

SCALE FACTOR: 225 miles divided by 90 miles = 2.5
Use the SF to figure out the missing information
So, 120 minutes multiplied by 2.5 = 300 minutes (5 hours)

IT WILL TAKE 5 HOURS TO DRIVE 225 MILES
