Sold 2/5 in the morning.....leaving 3/5
he sold 3/4 of 3/5 in the afternoon......3/4 * 3/5 = 9/20
2/5 = 8/20
9/20 - 8/20 = 1/20...so he sold 1/20 more in the afternoon.
so if 1/20 = 24, then 20/20 = 24*20 = 480
so he started with 480 cartons
Answer:
a) 50
b) 6.71
c) 0.0681
Step-by-step explanation:
check the attached file below
The area of a square is simply the side length squared and we are given that the area is 125 so:
s^2=125
s=√125
s=5√5
Now using the area equation again, and adding 1 inch to s we have:
A=(s+1)^2, and using s found above we have:
A=(5√5+1)^2
A=125+10√5+1
A=126+10√5 in^2
A≈148.36 in^2 (to nearest hundredth of a square inch)
X=25
4x-10=90
Add 10 to both sides
4x=100
Divide both sides by 4
