Answer: The tripled tofu is 4 lb. 14 oz. Explanation: So you first want to turn your mass into the same unit, so change the pounds of tofu into ounces. There are 16 ounces in a pound, which means the total mass of the original tofu could be written as (16 oz.) + 10 oz. = 26 oz. tofu. Multiply this by 3, and you have tripled the tofu. 3 * 26 = 78. To simplify it, divide 78 oz by 16 to find pounds, and leave the remainder in ounces. 78/16 = 4 lb. 14 oz tofu.
Water = 5 bottles * $0.90 = $4.50
meat = 8 pounds * x amount.
Total = water + meat prices = $26.90
26.90 = $4.50 + 8x
22.40 = 8x
2.8 = x
The price per pound of meat is $2.80.
There will be two squares.
Think about it: The shorter side is 3.5 feet. The longer side is 7 feet. If he cuts it in half on the longer side, he's taking the length of that longer side, and dividing it by 2. 7/2=3.5.
So, you'd have two squares, both with a length and width of 3.5 feet.
Answer:
John has $21.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let John's "wealth" be w. Then 2w+8 = 50, or 2w = 42, or w = 21.
John has $21. Eight more than twice this is 42+8 = 50, as expected.
