A: 80 ft^3
to make math easier, I'm translating the extra inches into a decimal so it's a solid number to represent feet. 9 inches is 0.750, and 1 inch is 0.0833 of a foot.
23.750 x 10.0833 = 239.478375, rounding up to 240 feet^2
multiply this by 0.333 to get the volume needed for the patio, 80 ft^3

(79.92 rounded up to the nearest whole)

B: $530
Multiply the volume of concrete needed by the price per cubic foot.
80 x 6 = $480, and since the volume is less then the limit to surpass the initial cost we add $50 to our total cost, making it $530

Brian bought a 15 pound bag of comcrete. he split the bag into smaller bags that each hold two and a half pounds. how many small
Westkost [7]
Okay.  You have 15 lbs of concrete, and x bags that can individually hold 2.5 lbs.  What you need to do is divide 15 by 2.5, and the quotient will be 6.
Problem:  15 ÷ 2.5 = 6
So the answer to your problem will be: 6 bags.

write an expression that shows how you can multiply 9x475 using expanded form and the distributive property
kari74 [83]
To multiply 9x475 using expanded form and the distributive property, you will break 475 into three numbers, multiply each of them by 9, and add the products together:

475 = 400 + 70 + 5

400x9 = 3600
70x9 = 630
5x9 = 45

3600 + 630 + 45 = 4,275
