3/4 because 1/2 equals 50% and 1/4 plus that would be 75% less than 6/8
Given:
Five and one half of 2 and one third.
To find:
The number for the given statement.
Solution:
Five and one half = 
2 and one third = 
The given statement is five and one half of 2 and one third.
Here, the word "of" is used for multiplication.
So, the expression for the given statement is:
Therefore, the required number is 
.
You have to put the numbers in order and find the middle value so in this case it's-
2, 4, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 8
The answer is $6
Answer:
39/500
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
61 bags of lettuce
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's create two equations representing the cost of bags of lettuce:
Val's Veggies: 250 + 1.50x = V
Sally's Salads: 100 + 4.00x = S
If you buy 60 bags of lettuce from either store, the answers will be equivalent:
If x = 60
250 + 1.50x = V
250 + 90 = V
340 = V
100 + 4.00x = S
100 + 240 = S
340 = S
Now that both equations are equivalent, all we need to do to tip the balance and make Val's Veggies cheaper is purchase one more bag of lettuce:
x = 61
250 + 1.50x = V
250 + 91.50 = V
341.50 = V
100 + 4.00x = S
100 + 244 = S
344 = S
Since V represents the price of a bag of lettuce at Val's Veggies and V is now less than S (Sally's Salads), Val's Veggies is now the cheaper option.
Therefore, 61 bags of lettuce must be purchased in order for Val's Veggies to be the cheaper option.
