Answer:
Number of offices in the building = 115
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the total number of offices.
Then 80% x= 92 or 80/100 * x =92
Hence, x = 92*100/80 = 9200/80= 115
Each bag contains 50 pattern blocks so 4 bags is
50 x 4 = 200 pattern blocks
hope this helps
Student P:
They messed up in step 1 because they made the 7.75 positive instead of negative, which causes the entire solution to be wrong
Student Q:
They were correct up until step 3. They didn't take all the negatives out of the equation (ex. -(3.5+7.75+29.67)).
Complete set:
From the picture, it looks like the original problem was
-2.5(1.4+3.1)+6.9(-4.3)
Step 1: multiply
1.4(-2.5)+3.1(-2.5)+6.9(-4.3)
Step 2: subtract (add?) them all together
-3.5-7.75-29.67
Step 3 should equal -40.92
|6.3| because the lines mean absolute value. Take the positive number values of each number and compare them. 6.3 vs 19/20. 19/20 is 0.95 so 6.3 is bigger.
The term is less than. Think about it this way next time, the mouth is open to the bigger number because it wants to eat the bigger number. So the number facing the tail is always less than.
