You have to label it but try 1 and 1/4, -1 and 1/4,2, and -2
The <em><u>correct answers</u></em> are:
60 pounds of onion rings and 60 hamburgers.
Explanation:
Jack serves a half pound of onion rings with every burger. He serves 120 bacon cheeseburgers. To find the number of pounds of onion rings, we multiply 1/2 pound by 120 burgers:
1/2(120) = 1/2(120/1) = (1*120)/(2*1) = 120/2 = 60 pounds of onion rings.
There were 8 hamburgers served out of the first 40 orders. If this rate continues, then to find the number of hamburgers out of 300 orders, we multiply 8/40 by 300:
8/40(300) = 8/40(300/1) = (8*300)/(40*1) = 2400/40 = 60
There would be 60 hamburgers.
The new shower head dispenses 3 gallons of water per minute, as shown in the equation y = 3x.
So, 3 x 8 = 24.
Then, to find out how much he saves each day, you would find how much he used before,
11 x 8 = 88
Next we want to see how much Nathan saved, so we subtract the total,
88 - 24 = 64
Nathan saved 64 gallons.
