Since two loaves of bread need 2 1/2 cups of flour, then how many cups do six loaves need?
 since 2 * 3 = 6, then the amount of flour for two loaves multiplied by 3 will be the amount needed for six!
2 1/2 * 3 = 7 1/2
Now, to find the amount of flour left over, all you need to do is subtract 7 1/2 from the amount of flour in the bag!

18 3/4 - 7 1/2 = 11 1/4 cups!

Sara has $1.30 less than double what Billy does. Sara has $53.72. How much money does Billy have?​
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Billy has $27.51

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's set up an equation to solve this problem.

Assign a variable to Billy's amount. Let's make it x.

Then we just interpret the problem and solve:

2x - 1.30 = 53.72

     +1.30    +1.30

----------------------------

2x = 55.02

(Divide by 2 on both sides)

----------------------------

x = $27.51

2x = Billy's amount doubled

2x - 1.30 = Taking away 1.30 from double Billy's amount

53.72 = Sara's amount
