A box of pencils is 5 1/4 inches wide. Seven pencils, laid side by side, take up 2 5/8 inches of the width. How many inches of t
Andre45 [30]

Answer:   Width of box is not taken up by pencils =  2\dfrac58\text{ inches}

Width of each pencil =\dfrac38\text{ inches}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Width of pencil box = 5\dfrac14\text{ inches}=\dfrac{21}{4}\text{ inches}

Width of seven pencils = 2\dfrac58\text{ inches}=\dfrac{16+5}{8}\text{ inches}=\dfrac{21}{8}\text{ inches}

Width of box is not taken up by pencils =  Width of pencil box  - Width of seven pencils

\left \{ {{y=2} \atop {x=2}} \right. \dfrac{21}{4}-\dfrac{21}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{21\times2-21}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{21}{8}\text{ inches}=2\dfrac58\text{ inches}

Width of box is not taken up by pencils =  2\dfrac58\text{ inches}

Width of each pencil = (Width of seven pencils ) ÷ 7

=\dfrac{21}{8}\div7\\\\=\dfrac{21}{8}\times\dfrac17\\\\=\dfrac38\text{ inches}

Width of each pencil =\dfrac38\text{ inches}

A sporting goods store is having a 40% off sale. What would be the sale price for a pair of skis that originally cost $108.
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

$64.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Instead of saying 40% off, I look at is as paying 60% on.  (100% less 40%). So I’m going to pay 60% of the original price of $108.  

60% of $108 is $64.80
