For me, I know that this answer would be greater than 10 because for a fact, 621 and 59 aren't just perfect multiples of 10. But I don't know, because all humans don't really think alike. So, your teacher might say this doesn't work. Then in that case, I am very sorry. :0
But in any case, I hope this helps and have a good night! :D

Answer:
132 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
Each tile cost $4
The adhesive/grouting material costs $17.82.
If the contractor pays a total of $545.82
Let the number of tiles be represented as x
The equation is represented as:
$17.82 + $4 × x = $545.82
17.82 + 4x = 545.82
Collect like terms
4x = 545.82 - 17.82
4x = 528
Divide bother sides by 4
4x/4 = 528/4
x = 132
The number of ceramic tiles the contractor bought = 132 tiles
Here is your answer
REASON:
Weight of total peanuts= 62.5 pounds
It is splitted into equally into 5 jars.
So,
Pounds of peanut each jar contains= Total weight/No. of jars
= 62.5/5 pounds
= 12.5 pounds (in each jar)
