He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.
Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.
To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.
To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.
Each package contained 12 pencils.
Hope this helps
Let the number of raspberry bushes in one garden = x
And the number of raspberry bushes in second garden = y
Garden one has 5 times as many raspberry bushes as second garden,
So the equation will be,
x = 5y -------(1)
If 22 bushes were transplanted from garden one to the second, number of bushes in both the garden becomes same,
Therefore, (x - 22) = (y + 22)
x - y = 22 + 22
x - y = 44 ------(2)
Substitute the value of x from equation (1) to equation (2)
5y - y = 44
4y = 44
y = 11
Substitute the value of 'y' in equation (1),
x = 5(11)
x = 55
Therefore, Number of bushes in garden one were 55 and in second garden 11 originally.

45.6%, I think
If the angle was 45 degrees, then 50% of the circumference of the ice cream would be inside the cone.
But the real angle is 41. 41 = (41/45) * 45
So if we multiply 45 by 41/45, we get 41. In the same way, if multiply the "50%" by 41/45, we get the percentage of ice cream circumference that is in the cone.
50% * 41/45 = 45.6%
The answer is 13 minus 3 equals 10
