Answer:
Each apple pie requires 8 apples, and each apple tart requires 4 apples.
Step-by-step explanation:
We see that both Pamela and Nicole bake the same amount of apple pies, but different amounts of apple tarts. Because of this, we can subtract the two to try to figure out the amount of apples for each apple tart. We subtract 68 from 76, giving us 8. Nicole baked 9 apple tarts, while Pamela baked 7, and 9-7=2. So we can bake two apple tarts with 8 apples, so one apple tart requires 4 apples (we divide by 2). Now that we know the amount of apples per each apple tart, we multiply 7 apple tarts that Pamela made by 4 apples, giving us 28. We subtract that from the total amount of apples Pamela used, which was 68, giving us 40. From this we can deduct that 5 apple pies need 40 apples, and we divide by 5, giving us 1 apple pie requires 8 apples.
Andrew walked for 3/4 miles after his break
<h3>
How to calculate the number of miles Andrew walked after the break ? </h3>
Andrew went for a walk
The trail he took is 1 1/4 miles long
He walked for 1/2 miles before stopping for a water break
After the break, he continued the journey
He continued the journey without stopping
The distance Andrew walked after his break can be calculated as follows
5/4 - 1/2
= 5-2/4
= 3/4
Hence Andrew walked for 3/4 miles after taking the break
