The correct answer is 60 raisins. To get this answer you will write a proportion of M & Ms to raisins and create and equivalent ratio using the number 36.
After you have the proportion set up, you will use cross products to solve for the number of raisins.
You can also use equivalent ratios to find the number of raisins.
Both of these strategies are shown in the attached picture.
Answer:
-4(3-1)+2
-4x2+2
-8+2= -6
since there is only one - and one + the answer will be negative
9 to the 3 half power is 27. Hope that's what your wanting to know.

From the given statement, we know the following...
0.35x = $247 where x = the orginial number
So if we solve for x by dividing by 0.35
x = $247/0.35 = $705.71
Well for two positive numbers subtracted to equal a negative number, the first number must have a value that is less than the second number. (Ex. 3-4= -1) In this case, you can conclude that x is less than y! (x<y)
