C is the correct answer! :)
The answer is c
Because if it takes 50 minutes to run 4 miles you need to divide 50/4 and you will get 12.5 and then multiply that by 30 cause she is trying to run 30 miles and that will get you 375 and then divide that by 60 cause their are 60 minutes in a hour and you will get 6.25
The first 4 on the left has a value of 400. The next 4 has a value of 40. The first 4 is in the hundreds place and the second 4 is in the 10's place.
I think that the answer to this is 40 girls
24/3=8
8*5=40
hope this helps
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost per item is found by dividing the cost by the number of items. If the woman bought n items for $120, the cost of each item is $120/n. If the woman bought 24 more items, n+24, at the same price, then the cost per item is $120/(n+24). The problem statement tells us this last cost is $16 less than the first cost:
120/(n+24) = (120/n) -16
Multiplying by n(n+24) gives ...
120n = 120(n+24) -16(n)(n+24)
0 = 120·24 -16n^2 -16·24n . . . . . . subtract 120n and collect terms
n^2 +24n -180 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -16 to make the numbers smaller
(n +30)(n -6) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor the quadratic
The solutions to this are the values of n that make the factors zero: n = -30, n = 6. The negative value of n has no meaning in this context, so n=6 is the solution to the equation.
The woman bought 6 items.

Check
When the woman bought 6 items for $120, she paid $120/6 = $20 for each of them. If she bought 6+24 = 30 items for the same money, she would pay $120/30 = $4 for each item. That amount, $4, is $16 less than the $20 she paid for each item.
