Area = Length x Width
Given that length = 192cm² and the length = 12 cm, we plug these values into the equation and solve for the width:
192 = 12 x width
192 = 12width
width = 192 ÷ 12
width = 16 cm
Answer: Width = 16 cm
In order to determine the cost of each pencil we have to divide the total cost for the package of pencils by the number of pencils contained
For the 4 pencils box:
Cost per pencil = Total cost/number of pencils
Cost per pencil = 6/4 = 1.5
Similarly, for the 5 pencils package:
Cost per pencil = 7/5 = 1.4
As you can see, the $7 package is better to buy, because each pencil costs $1.4, then, option A is the correct answer
Using the distributive property is done by multiplying the factor (outside the parentheses) to each term within it. In this case, 8(3 + 4), we multiply the 8 by 3, and then add it to the product of 8 x 4:
8(3 + 4) = 8 x 3 + 8 x 4 = 24 + 32
If we need to simplify further, this adds up to 56.
