The answer to the question
In the given question, it is already mentioned that Pam takes 15 minutes to type 2.5 pages. this information should be used as the main information for reaching the desired answer.
Pam typed 2.5 pages in = 15 minutes
Then time taken by Pam to type 23 pages = (15/2.5) * 23
= 345/2.5
= 3450/25
= 138
So Pam will take 138 minutes to type 23 pages
No. You can’t add the two lower numbers up to make the bigger number making them not a triangle.
Answer:
The first step would be to look at the first two numbers (which is 27) and estimate which <u>multiple</u> of 5 is closest and <u>below</u> 27.
5*5 = 25
So once she got 25, she will need to subtract 27-25, which will give her 2. REMEMBER: 5 is the first number of the quotient.
Now, she will need to drag the last digit left of 275 (which is 5) to the remainder 2 and think what multiple of 5 will give her the answer 25.
Again, 5*5 = 25
Once again, her numbers on the quotient will be 55. That's the answer.
