M = 21 - R is our equation. Plug your value of 12 into the equation for R.
M = 21 - 12.
M = 9.

Hello! :)
Use a proportion to find how many seconds are needed to fold 5 shirts.
We are given that he takes 28 seconds to fold 2 shirts:
28 sec : 2 shirts
We are not given the amount of time needed for 5 shirts, which we need to solve:
x seconds : 5 shirts
Express in a fraction:
Cross multiply and simplify:
Therefore, he needs 70 seconds to fold 5 shirts.
We know that 3/10*20=6 students are eating salads.
We also know that 3/5*20=12 students are eating sandwiches.
Assuming each person only eats one thing, there are 20-12-6=2 students eating lunches other than salads or sandwiches.
Im guessing your saying how do you write 1.92 x 10 when you multiply you dont need to line up your decimals but it would lookm something like this:
1.92
x 10
and if it was 1.92 and 10.0 it would look like this
1.92
x 10.0
the deimals dont line up because you are multipling but if you were adding or subtrcating then you would have to line it up but not in this case
