Answer: With $17.50 you can buy 7 packs of grape tomatoes.

Step-by-step explanation: For this question you can find the answer by taking 52.50 ÷ 21 which is 2.5 so that packs are $2.50 a pack and then you can either plug in numbers or take 17.50 ÷ 2.5.

Hope this helps.

Answer:

You can only buy 7 packages. Each package cost $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright so the cost of 21 packages of grapes cost $52.50 dollars.

So to get how much 1 package cost you divide 21 into 52.50

so 52.50 divided by 21= 2.5

So each package cost $2.50

So you have $17.50 to spend

so take 2.50 and divided that by 17.50

17.50 divided by 2.5= 7 so you can only by 7 packages for $17.50

Why does multiple of 3 add up digits trick work?
kherson [118]
You must be referring to the quick way to determine whether a given integer is divisible by 3; that is, 3 divides an integer x whenever the digits of x sum to a multiple of 3.

Suppose x has n\ge1 digits. We can expand it as a sum of the numbers in any given digits place by the corresponding power of 10. For example, if x=2148, we can write

2148=2\times10^3+1\times10^2+4\times10^1+8\times10^0

More generally, if

x=d_{n-1}d_{n-2}\ldots d_1d_0

(where d_i denotes the numeral in the 10^i-th's place), then we have the expansion

x=d_{n-1}10^{n-1}+d_{n-2}10^{n-2}+\cdots+d_110^1+d_0

Notice that for any integer k, we have

10^k-1=\underbrace{99\ldots99}_{k\text{ 9s}}

which is clearly divisible by 3. So from each power of 10 in the expansion of x, we can add and subtract 1, then rearrange the terms of the sum:

x=d_{n-1}10^{n-1}+\cdots+d_110^1+d_0
x=d_{n-1}(10^{n-1}-1+1)+\cdots+d_1(10^1-1+1)+d_0
x=d_{n-1}(10^{n-1}-1)+\cdots+d_1(10^1-1)+(d_{n-1}+\cdots+d_1+d_0)

We know 10^k-1 is divisible by 3, which means the remainder upon dividing x by 3 is just the sum of the digits of x. If this remainder is divisible by 3, then so must be the original number, x.

Back to our previous example: if x=2148, then we have the expansion

2148=2\times10^3+10^2+4\times10+8
2148=2(999+1)+(99+1)+4(9+1)+8
2148=2\times999+99+4\times9+(2+1+4+8)

Dividing through by 3, we get a remainder of 2+1+4+8=15, which is divisible by 3, and so 2148 must also be a multiple of 3.

In case for some reason you're not convinced 15 is a multiple of 3, you can apply the same trick:

15=10+5
15=9+1+5

Dividing through by 3 leaves a remainder of 1+5=6, which is also a multiple of 3, so that 15 must be, too.
