I'll try to understand this but I don't really get it because I'm in middle school
D= 0.25 days Because 6 hours is 25% of one day
-3a=-3-2b
a=1+2/3b
Solution
a=1+2/3b
The proportion
peanuts : raisins : chocolate chips = 4 : 6 : 2
tells you that peanuts make up
4/(4+6+2) = 1/3
of the total quantity of the mix.
The quantity of peanuts required is (1/3)*(48 ounces) = 16 ounces (or 1 pound).
_____
In the 48 ounces of mix, 1 part = 4 ounces.
TOTAL IS $10
If the party costs $5 and each additional person is $1 and she invites 5 more 5 X 1 = 5
OR 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1
