The first answer, using a number line, is a good answer.
I have two other ways:
Way #1:
5 stones is more than 3 stones.
5 gallons is greater than 3 gallons.
5 pounds is greater than 3 pounds.
5 puppies is greater than 3 puppies.
5 hamburgers is greater than 2 hamburgers.
5 schoolbuses is greater than 3 schoolbuses.
We look around us, and we see that 5 of anything
is always greater than 3 of the same thing.
There's no reason that should change if the 'things' are eighths.
Way #2:
-- Get 2 friends to help you.
-- Take one good-size veggie pizza or coconut cream pie.
-- Carefully cut it up in eight (8) equal pieces.
Now each piece is 1/8 of the pie or the pizza.
-- Give 5 pieces (5/8) to the first friend.
Give 3 pieces (3/8) to the other friend.
-- Ask them to get together and agree on who has more.
Cairo's cost is modeled by 45 + 24h
Tarantino's is modeled by 30h
For h = 6:
Cairo = 45 + 24*6 = 189
Tarantino = 180
For h = 7
Cairo = 45 + 24*7 = 213
Tarantino = 210
For h = 10
Cairo = 45 + 24*10 = 285
Tarantino = 300
Like
you said: 10 beats per minute, which is 20% percent of its normal value.
So:
10 per minute is 20% of the normal rate. You will divide each side by 0.2, which
will result in 50 per min

Answer:
23d + 45 = 137
Explanation:
Since it is $23 per day, that dollar amount must be associated with a variable that multiples it per day that it is rented. Finally, you need to add the one time $45. This equation can then be used to find how many days it was rented for.
23d + 45 = 137
23d = 92 (Subtract 45 from both sides)
d = 4 (Divide by 23 on both sides)
The rug-cleaning machine was rented for 4 days. You found this using the equation: 23d + 45 = 137
