Answer:
The options are not shown, so i will answer in a general way.
Let's define the variables:
h = number of hats
m = number of mugs.
We know that a total of 1000 items were ordered, then:
h + m = 1000
We also know that we have 3 times more mugs than hats, this can be written as:
m = 3*h
Now we have the system of equations:
h + m = 1000
m = 3*h
To solve these, we usually start by isolating one of the variables in one equation and then replace that in the other equation, but in this case, we already have m isolated in the second equation, then we can replace that in the first equation to get:
h + m = 1000
h + (3*h) = 1000
Now we can solve this equation for h, and find the number of hats ordered.
4*h = 1000
h = 1000/4 = 250
There were 250 hats ordered.

Answer: $4.46</h3>
===================================================
Work Shown:
3 containers = 6.69 dollars
3/3 containers = 6.69/3 dollars .... divide both sides by 3
1 container = 2.23 dollars
2*(1 container) = 2*(2.23 dollars) ... multiply both sides by 2
2 containers = 4.46 dollars
A shortcut is to start with "3 containers = 6.69 dollars" and multiply both sides by 2/3
Each mention of "container" refers to a half-gallon container.
.28125 lb? I did 16/4.5 and it equals 3.5555, then we did 1/3.5555 then we got .28125 lb
Not sure what you mean
