So, the subtraction looks like this:
223
-119
_______
The reason why combining place values here is necessary is that 3 is less than 9 (so I can't just substract in the one's place without going to negative numbers)
so we combine the ones and tens places and substract the whole: 23-19 is four!
223
-119
_______
04
and then we continue
223
-119
_______
204
and that's the result!
$12.89 should be the answer bc 4.5+2.25=6.75 and 87 divided by 6.75 is 12.888888 so i would either round up or down
Answer:
94 boxes of samoas
131 boxes of thin mints
Step-by-step explanation:
m=mints
s=samoas
s+m=225 m=225-s
s(2.5)+m(3)=628
2.5s+3m=628
substitute for m
2.5s+3(225-s)=628
2.5s+675-3s=628
reduce
-0.5s=-47
s=94
m=131
