Answer:
$0.21
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion. Say x is the cost of 1 wristband:
Now, we cross multiply:
25x = 5.25
Solving for x, we see that x = 0.21.
Thus, the answer is $0.21.
Answer: last week he made $630
Step-by-step explanation:
14% of 4500 is 630
First you make -1 and 3/4 have a common denominator. 1 has a fraction of 1/1 so times four it is 4/4. Then you add on both sides in order to isolate x and you get 3/10x = 7/4.
Then you isolate x by multyiplying the reciprocal of 3/10 on both sides, 10/3.
3/10 and 10/3 cancel out and you get an answer of x = 70/4.
You could then simplify it to get 35/6 by finding a greasted common multiple of 12 and 70 which is 2 and dividing both by 2 to get a simpilier answer.
So the answer is x = 35/6
STEP 1:
Calculate total amount of ribbon
= 2 spools * 24 yards each
= 48 yards total
STEP 2:
Divide total yards (48 yards) by portion size (1/8 yard)
= 48 ÷ 1/8
to divide fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal/inverse of 1/8
= 48 * 8/1
= 48 * 8
= 384 bows
ANSWER: She can make 384 bows.
Hope this helps! :)
