Margot has 21 1/2 pounds of flour 8 pounds of butter and 18 1/2 ponds of sugar to make shortbread cookies if she makes 12 batche

adell [148]

Answer:

4 pounds of ingredients are used in each batch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of flour = $21\frac{1}{2}pounds = \frac{43}{2}pounds$

Amount of butter = 8 pounds

Amount of sugar = $18\frac{1}{2}pounds= \frac{37}{2} pounds$

So, the total amount of all ingredients will be: $(\frac{43}{2}+\frac{37}{2}+8)pounds = (\frac{43+37+16}{2}) pounds= \frac{96}{2} pounds = 48 pounds$

Given that, she makes 12 batches of cookies using all the ingredients.

Thus, the amount of ingredients used in each batch $=\frac{48}{12} pounds = 4 pounds$

santosh is four more than three times the age of his cousin. if santosh is 49 years old, then what is the age of his cousin?

andrezito [222]

Santosh's cousin is 15 years old because 49-4=45. Divide 45 by 3 and the quotient is 15. To check: 15 times 3= 45. Add 4 and the sum is 49.

The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was to . If there were 12,7

Sever21 [200]

Answer: The question is incomplete

Step-by-step explanation: The answer to this question cannot be determined correctly since an important detail is missing.

However, let me explain how you would normally go about it by using an example of mine. If for example the ratio of yes votes to no votes was 8 to 5, and the question requires you to calculate how many yes votes were there as indicated in your question, then the first step would be to find the total number of both sides of the ratio. That is add 8 to 5 which gives you 13. This means if there was a total of 13 votes cast, every yes vote stands for 8 out of 13 votes and every no vote stands for 5 out of 13 votes.

To express it mathematically, every yes vote would be 8/13 of the total (12779) and every no vote would be 5/13 of the total (12779).

Therefore to determine how many yes votes there was, is calculated as follows;

Let yes votes be y and no votes be x'

y = (8/13) * 12779

y = 102232/13

y = 7864

Based on my example that the ratio of yes votes to no votes is 8 to 5,

Then the number of yes votes was 7,864.
