40 percent of 250 = .4*250 = 100
100 seventh graders got the flu.
You know that there are 25 people and each person had 36 carrots. To find how many carrots everyone has in total, you have to multiply 25 by 36.
25 times 36 is 900.
There are 900 carrots altogether.
The equation to find the amount of money spent is 27 + 0.05m. This equation, in this case, needs to be larger or equal to 90.70. So our inequality would be:
27 + 0.05m >= 90.70
Now we can solve this equation for m.
27 + 0.05m >= 90.70
0.05m >= 63.70
m >= 1274
