Answer: Distributive Property
The distributive property is
a*(b+c) = a*b + a*c
a*(b-c) = a*b - a*c
Use the second version to say 5*(8-6) = 5*8-5*6
The idea is to multiply the outer term 5 by each of the inner terms.
In math, volume is length x width x height
Answer: 1⁵/₈ pints
Step-by-step explanation:
First can contained 3¹/₄ pints and second can contained 6¹/₂.
To make them equal, first find the different;
= 6¹/₂ - 3¹/₄
= 6.5 - 3.25
= 3.25
Divide this difference by 2;
= 3.25/2
= 1.625
= 1⁶²⁵/₁₀₀₀
= 1⁵/₈ pints
If Carson pours 1⁵/₈ pints from the second Can, it would increase the first can to 4⁷/₈ pints whilst reducing the second can to 4⁷/₈ pints as well.
If the first increase was 50%, that means that the price between the first and the second increase is 150% of the original. And as you need 6 (which is 4*150%) times the original, the price was increased for 450%. So, the last peecent increase is
