From the information given, each batch of cookies requires 1/6 of a bag of flour.
So how many batches can be gotten from 5/6 of the bag of flour?
We form an equation
1batch = 1/6
x batches = 5/6
Where x is the number of batches from 5/6 bag of flour.
Cross multiplying this equation we get:
x * 1/6 = 1 * 5/6
simplify it:
x * 0.16 = 1 * 0.83
x = 1 * 0.83 / 0.16
x = 0.83 / 0.16
x = 5.2
Therefore factory made approximately 5 batches of cookies yesterday.
Answer:
ROI = 66.67%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
josh investment= $12,000
Received sum= $20,000
ROI=?
ROI is the return on investment that gives the loss or gain in any investment and is calculated by the following formula:
ROI= (interest/investment) x 100
Finding interest:
interests= received sum- investment
= 20,000-12,000
=8000
Putting values in ROI formula we get:
ROI= (8000/12000) x 100
= 66.67%
Hence the return on investment is 66.67%!
Answer:
a. 14
b. 7
Step-by-step explanation:
a. First we must add all the animals together,
Total Animals:
Birds: 6
Fish: 5
Mammals: 11
Reptiles: 3
Therefore our equation is:
6 + 5 + 11 +3 = 25.
Now, we must subtract by the number of mammals:
25 - 11 = 14
So our answer for a. is 14!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
b. So for this problem we must compute mammals + fish and than birds + reptiles. After we figure that out we must subtract them!
Mammals + Fish =
11 + 5 =
16
Next,
Birds + Reptiles =
6 + 3 =
9
Now, let us subtract them,
16 - 9 =
7
So our answer for b. is 7 more animals!
40 fifth graders take a bus to school. 8x8= 64 so they have you a good fraction to start with to find out how many kids are walking or taking their bike (3/8) all you have to do is multiply 3 and 8 which equals 24 to find the fraction of the amount of kids who take the bus you subtract 3 from 8 which gives 5/8 and to get the answer you multiply 5 and 8 which is 40.
