Answer:
3c=273
c=91
2c= 212
C= 106
c= 91+ 106= 197
so they will need 197 canoes total
Why:
So first you have to determine a set variable to represent the number of canoes, I chose C. Then you make an equation to represent the number of canoes 273 people will use if they group into 3's, from this I got 3c=273. Solve for C and get 91.
The remainder of the group which is 485-273= 212 will use canoes in groups of 2's. To represent this, 2c=212. Solve for C and get 106. Combine 106 and 91 to get the total number of canoes.
Answer:
E
Step-by-step explanation:
let a, b, c represent the number of students in 6th, 7th, 8th grade
ratio of students : teachers = 28 : 1
There are 82 teachers , so 28 × 82 = 2296 students
Then
a + b + c = 2296 , that is
828 + b + c = 2296 ( subtract 828 from both sides )
b + c = 1468 → E
The average is 2. To find the average you add all the numbers then divide the sum by the total amount of numbers.
