Since a pound has 16 ounces, each ounce would cost 4 divided by 16, or 25 cents. 1.20 divided by .25 = 4 4/5. 4.8 ounces.
The correct answer is D. The numerator and the denominator must be divided by the same number, and 16 is the highest number they can both be divided by. It would simplify down to 3/4.
85 = 10x+15
70 = 10x
x = 7
180-85 = 95 = z
3x−2y=12;−3x+8y=−6
Step: Solve3x−2y=12for x:
3x−2y=12
3x−2y+2y=12+2y(Add 2y to both sides)
3x=2y+12

Answer:
$31.5
Step-by-step explanation:
X * 5% = $1.50
X = $1.50 / 5%
Or by using simple rule of three:
If 5% is $1.50
Then 100% is X
So you obtain = $30
Now you just need to sum The net prices and the taxes
Net + tax = Total Charge
$30 + $1.5 = $31.5
