For the first one it’s subtraction property of equality
3+6-7=2
2x5/2=5(1)
6x5/2=15(2)
The area shaded: (1)+(2) => 5+15=20
Answer: 20
1.5 meters tall is a good estimate
<span>1. 15 is what percent of 40?
15 * 100 / 40 = 37.5
answer is </span><span>15 is 37.5% of 40
</span><span>
2. 15 is 30% of what number?
15 / 0.3 = 50
answer : </span>15 is 30% of 50<span>
3. What number is 120% of 70?

To solve this problem you must follow the proccedure shown below:
1. You have the following information given in the problem above:
- <span>Marta is making 3 servings of fruit salad.
- Marta adds 3/8 cups blueberries for each serving.
- Her measuring cup holds 1/8 cup.
2. Then, you have:
1 time----1/8 cup
x----3/8 cups
x=(3/8)/(1/8)
x= 3x8/1x8
x=24/8
x=3 times
H</span><span>ow many times must Marta measure 1/8 cup of blueberry to have enough for the fruit salad?
The answer is: 3 times</span>
