Let
be the number of boxes the team brings with them. Their weight combined with the boxes can't exceed the capacity of 1400. Assuming the elevator runs fine at that exact weight, you want to find the number of boxes, each of which contributes 40 pounds. This is given by the equation
Solving for
, you have
So the team can bring *at most* 5 boxes at a time.
Answer:
P = 33
A = 3900

Answer:
28.75 or 28 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
This equation is made for Long Division:
115/4
4 cannot go into 1 evenly.
4 can go into 11, 2 times.
4x2=8
11-8=3
4 can go into 35, 8 times.
35-32=3
Add a zero at the end, then divide 4 into 30.
4 goes into 30, 7 times.
30-28=2
Add another zero, then divide again.
4 goes into 20, 5 times.
20-20=0
So, after you hit an even number you can stop dividing and put in your answer.
28.75
Answer:
1 3/8.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 1/4 - 1 7/8
First convert to improper fractions:
3 1/4 = (3*4) + 1 / 4 = 13/4.
1 7/8 = (1 *8)+7 / 8 = 15/8. So we have:
13/4 - 15/8
The Lowest Common Multiple of 4 and 8 is 8 so we convert 13/4 to eighth's
13 / 4 = 13*2 / 4 *2 = 26/8
Finally: we have
26/8 - 15/8 = (26 - 15) /8
= 11 /8
= 1 3/8 (answer)
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply the 1 1/2 by 2 to get 3.
find the closest number that is divisible by 3
3*7 is 21.
We now have to multiply 7 by 2 since we did that to our mixed number to get a whole number.
There is still a 1 1/2 left over. Simply add 1 to 14.
