42 is 21% of 200. This is because 200*0.21 = 42.
The answer is 14. First, get both numbers and add them twice (2.5+2.5+4.5+4.5) or (2.5 * 2 + 4.5 * 2). Then you should get 2 numbers which are 9 and 5. Then it should be 14, which is the answer.
Answer:
(x-7) (x-8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Break the expression into groups:
= x(x-7) -8(x-7)
Factor out x from:
x^2-7x x(x-7)
Factor out -8 from -8x+56:
-8(x-7)
=x\left(x-7\right)-8\left(x-7\right)
Answer:
He can make 3 batches of soup.
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting with 10 pounds of tomatoes and taking out the number of pounds he sets aside for spaghetti sauce, 2.8, we have:
10-2.8 = 7.2 pounds left.
0.2 is read as "two tenths," so 7.2 = 7 2/10
We divide this remaining number of pounds by 2 2/5 for each batch of soup:
7 2/10 ÷ 2 2/5
Convert each to an improper fraction:
72/10 ÷ 12/5
Multiply by the reciprocal:
72/10 × 5/12 = 360/120 = 3
