Answer:
$20
Step-by-step explanation:
Paul is making bread using a recipe. The amount of flour he uses is proportional to the number of loaves of bread. He uses 11 1/4 cups of flour to make 5 loaves of bread. If Paul used 18 cups of flour, and then sold the loaves of bread he made at a bake sale for $2.50 each, how much money would Paul make from his bread sales?
Step 1
Find out how many loaves of bread he can produce from 18 cups of flour
11 1/4 cups of flour = 5 loaves of bread
18 cups of flour = x loaves of bread
Cross Multiply
11 1/4 cups × x loaves = 18 cups × 5 loaves
x loaves = 18 cups × 5 loaves/ 11 1/4 cups
x loaves = 90 ÷ 11 1/4
x loaves = 90 ÷ 45/4
x loaves = 90 × 4/45
x loaves = 8 loaves of bread
He can produce 8 loaves of bread from 18 cups of flour.
Step 2
We are told that:
1 loaf of bread costs $2.50
Hence,
1 loaf of bread = $2.50
8 loaves of bread = $x
Cross Multiply
$x = 8 loaves of bread × $2.50
$x = $20
Therefore, Paul made $20 from his bread sales
The answer is 3
Multiply 6 by 3 to get the total amount of money for the books then minus the answer 18 which you get from 6 x 3 = 18
Then minus 18 from 21 to get $3
21 - 18 = 3
45-9=36/18=2 I hope this helps
Answer:
26
Step-by-step explanation:
Thus, f(b)−f(a)b−a=3(4)−(3(1))4−(1)=26.
Answer:
for the third one 2/5 for the fourth one 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first one, I put 10/25 as a fraction and found the least common multiple, which is 5. I then simplified, and got 2/5.
For the second one, I chose 3/5 because there are 3 friends whose names end in a, and 5 friends whose names do not end in a. My theory was that I took the friends and divided them into 2 groups by most common.
hope this helps if it doesn't I will correct myself :)
