Answer: who made this question I think you need to round 250 to the nearest whole number I’m not sure.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C. 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say M is the original number of men and W is the original number of women.
M / W = 3 / 5
(M+2) / (W+1) = 2 / 3
Let's cross multiply both equations:
5M = 3W
3(M+2) = 2(W+1)
Let's simplify the second equation:
3M + 6 = 2W + 2
3M + 4 = 2W
From the first equation:
M = 3/5 W
Substitute:
3 (3/5 W) + 4 = 2W
9/5 W + 4 = 2W
4 = 1/5 W
W = 20
There were originally 20 women.
Let's check our answer. That would mean that M = 3/5 W = 12.
After 2 men walk in and 1 woman, W = 21 and M = 14, so 14/21 = 2/3. Looks like the answer is correct!
Answer C.
6 Cucumbers = $2
$2/6 = $0.33 per cucumber
12 peppers= $9
$9/12= $0.75 per pepper
6 tomatoes= $4
$4/6= $0.66 per tomatoes
9 cucumbers= $2.97
18 peppers= $13.5
21 tomatoes=$13.86
Total= (2.97+13.5+13.86)----> $30.33
