Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of shirt = $12.50

Cost per socks = $2.50

Total amount paid = $27.50

How many pairs of socks was purchased =?

Let Number of socks purchased = x

Total amount paid = cost of shirt + (cost per socks * number of socks)

27.50 = 12.50 + (2.50 * x)

27.50 = 12.50 + 2.50x

27.50 - 12.50 = 2.50x

15 = 2.50x

x = 15 / 2.50

x = 6

Number of pairs purchased = 6

It takes 40 minutes for 8 people to paint 4 walls. how many minutes does it take 10 people to paint 7 walls?
timurjin [86]
Its not 70 its 56, because you have to see how many minutes it takes for 1 to do 4 walls which would be 40*8.
Then you have to see if how many minutes its take a person to do one wall which is 8*40/4 from getting the amount of the 1 person doing 4 walls and get 80.
Then you need to see how many walls a person can paint 7 walls out of 10 people.So, we know how many minutes for each wall which is 80 and then multiply it by 7 to get 560 and divide it by 10 to get a product of 56.
