I think it’s c if not i’m sorry i got you incorrect but it just makes more since
Answer:
68
Step-by-step explanation:
The second and the third one are similar.
75-31= 44
44/75= 0.58666 or 58.7%
Subtract 31 from 75 since we're figuring out greater than or "equal to" we want to include the number 32 in our equation. If it was only "greater than" 32 then we'd subtract 32 from 75. Then you divide that number(44) by 75, which is all the possible outcomes you could have in this scenario. Move the decimal two places to the right to make it a percentage and you've got your answer.
In the given question, there are two vital information's give. Firstly 8 ears of corn and 1 cantaloupe cost $2.37. On the other hand 6 ears of corn and 3 cantaloupes cost $3.51.
Let us assume the cost of 1 corn = X
Let us assume the cost of 1 cantaloupe = Y
Then
8X + Y = 2.37
Y = 2.37 - 8X
And
6X + 3Y = 3.51
Now we replace the value of Y we found from the first equation
Then
6X + 3(2.37 - 8X) = 3.51
6X - 24X + 7.11 = 3.51
-18X = 3.51 - 7.11
-18X = -3.6
X = 3.6/18
= 0.20
So $0.20 is the value of 1 corn. Then the value of a cantaloupe
Y = 2.37 - 8X
= 2.37 - (8 * 0.20)
= 2.37 - 1.6
= 0.77
So cost of a cantaloupe is $0.77
