Answer: 125 cans

Pay attention to the word "times". "Times" means to multiply. We don't know how many cans we have right now. If we want to get up to 1000 cans of food. And we need to get 8 'times' the amount we already have, why not do the opposite of multilpication, and divide. So, you divide 1000 by 8. You get 125. Now, you can multilpy 125 by 8 and get 1000.

Hope this helps.

Divide 1000 by 8 which would give you 125. So they have 125 cans and they need to collect 8 times as many, meaning 8 times of what they have which is 125. And 125 times 8 is equal to 1000. YOU'RE WELCOME :D

Maru [420]

Answer: 17.50

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of x = 3.50

(20/100) x = 3.50  Divide top and bottom of the left number by 20

(20÷20) / (100÷20)  *  x = 3.50

(1/5) x = 3.50           Multiply both sides by 5  

x = 3.50 * 5

x = 17.50

The meal cost 17.50
