Forty-five and twenty-three hundredths.
In general, with decimals, the first place value after the decimal is read as a tenth, the second is read as a hundredth, the third is read as a thousandth, and so on. In front of the decimal, we know that 4 is in the tens place and 5 is in the ones place, so we say forty-five. Past the decimal, 2 is in the tenths place (think about how 2/10 = .2, which is "two-tenths") and 3 is in the hundredths place (think about how 23/100 = .23). You read the number after the decimal like normal ("twenty-three," "two-hundred fifteen," etc), then you add the place ("tenths, hundredths, ten-thousands") at the very end.
Let c represent the weight of cashews and p the weight of pecans.
Then c + 10 = total weight of the nut mixture.
An equation for the value of the mixture follows:
$1.50(10 lb) + $0.75c = (c+10)($1.00)
Solve this equation for c: 15 + .75c = c + 10. Subtract .75c from both sides:
15 = 1c - 0.75c + 10. Then 5=0.25c, and c = 5/0.25, or 20.
Need 20 lb of cashews.
Check: the pecans weigh 10 lb and are worth $1.50 per lb, so the total value of the pecans is $15. The total value of the cashews is (20 lb)($0.75/lb), or $15. Does (20 lb + 10 lb)($1/lb) = $15 + $15? Yes. So c= 20 lb is correct.
