The entire shipment contains 9 2/7 tons of sugar
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Find the total amount of sugar in the entire shipment.
Number of containers in the shipment = 4 1/3 = 13/3
Number of tons of sugar = 2 1/7 = 15/7
⇒ Total amount of sugar = 13/3 × 15/7 = 65/7 = 9 2/7 tons
Remember that cents has a decimal when put in an equation.
250(x + 11) + 250x = 4250
250x + 2750 + 250x = 4250
500x + 2750 = 4250
500x = 1500
x = 3 cents (pencils)
x+11 = 14 cents (pens)
