So there would be two equations

120=x+y

and

4850=45x+35y

We can now solve for each variable

y=120-x

plug it into the second equation...

4850=45x+35(120-x)

4850=45x+4200-35x

650=10x

x=65

Now plug in X

y=120-65

y=55

They are carrying 65 big boxes and 55 small boxes.

Check

---------

120=y+x

120=55+65

120=120

Is 6/7 equal to 3/4?
zheka24 [161]
Ok so, when working to find if a fraction is equal to another you must know what it is cut down by. So 6 / 2 = 3. Now let's break down 7 by 2. It is 3.5 that is not four. So no 6/7 so not equal to 3/4.

One serving of Gooey Gushers provides 12% of the daily value of vitamin C. Tim ate 312 servings of Gooey Gushers.
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

a) Given expression,

12% of 312

Since 100% of 312 = 312

⇒ 10% of 312 = 31.2,

⇒ 1% = 3.12

⇒ 2% = 2 × 3.12 = 6.24

So, 12% of 312 = 10% of 312 + 2% of 312

= 31.2 + 6.24

= 37.44

b) Given,

Total number of servings = 312,

The percentage of vitamin C in each serving = 12%,

Thus, the total amount of the vitamin C in 312 servings = 12% of 312

=\frac{12\times 312}{100}

=\frac{3744}{100}

= 37.44,

Hence, the question can be asked about the total amount of the vitamin C.
