To find the cost per pound you simply divide the amount paid by the amount purchased
For Beef it would be:
$7.20 ÷ 2.0 = $3.60
For Pork it would be:
$8.10 ÷ 2.5 = $3.40
For Chicken it would be:
$9.80 ÷ 3.5 = $2.8
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is given by number of possible outcomes ÷ number of total outcomes
The time commuting between home and work is 6mi
Probability (the engineer is at least 2mi from home) means that the engineer is either 2mi from home or more than 2mi from home
Probability (the engineer is 2mi from home) = 2/6
Probability (the engineer is more than 2mi from home) = 1 - 2/6 = (6-2)/6 = 4/6
Probability (the engineer is at least 2mi from home) = 2/6 + 4/6 = 6/6 = 1
Answer:
1. 7/9
2. 7/16
3. 3/7
4. 123/125
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Simplify the following:
2/9 + 5/9
2/9 + 5/9 = (2 + 5)/9:
(2 + 5)/9
2 + 5 = 7:
Answer: 7/9

2. Simplify the following:
3/4 - 5/16
Put 3/4 - 5/16 over the common denominator 16. 3/4 - 5/16 = (4×3)/16 - 5/16:
(4×3)/16 - 5/16
4×3 = 12:
12/16 - 5/16
12/16 - 5/16 = (12 - 5)/16:
(12 - 5)/16
12 - 5 = 7:
Answer: 7/16

3. Simplify the following:
6/7×1/2
6/7×1/2 = 6/(7×2):
6/(7×2)
6/2 = (2×3)/2 = 3:
Answer: 3/7

4. Rewrite the decimal number as a fraction with 1 in the denominator
0.984=0.984/1
Multiply to remove 3 decimal places. Here, you multiply top and bottom by 10^3 = 1000
(0.984/1)×(1000/1000)= 984/1000
Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 984 and 1000, if it exists, and reduce the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by GCF = 8,
(984/8) = 123
(1000/8) = 125
Therefore
X=123/125
In conclusion,
Answer: 0.984=123/125
$2200 + 3.75% of $4500 would be 2200 + 0.0375 x 4500 or $2200 + $168.75
2200 + 168.75 = $2368.75
