Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The Friendly Food Store has the best offer

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer:

The Friendly Food Store's sale.

Step-by-step explanation:

Say you were to get 10 boxes of cereal. We would use this to figure out which one costs less.

Since the Friendly Food Store is offering 5 for 8.25, we would multiply the amount of money by two to get 10.

8.25 x 2 = $16.50

The Best Food Store is offering 2 for 3.50. The same would apply here for the equation, but we would multiply the amount by 5.

3.50 x 5 = $17.50

Thus you would find out that the sale at the Friendly Food Store would give you the most cereal for your money.

Bonita evaluated 5/6 × 1 2/3 and got an answer of 7/3. How can you tell that her answer is wrong?A. The answer must be less than 5/6.

B. The answer cannot be an improper fraction.

C. 5/6 of a number cannot be greater than the number.

D. The denominator cannot be the same as one of the factors.

Answers

Answer: Option 'C' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

$(5)/(6)* 1(2)/(3)\n\n=(5)/(6)* (5)/(3)\n\n=(5* 5)/(6* 3)\n\n=(25)/(18)$

But she gets $(7)/(3)$ as an answer.

As we know that

$(5)/(6)$ of a number cannot be greater than the number.

Because the value of $(5)/(6)$ is 0.84 which is less than 1.

So, $(5)/(6)$ of a number cannot be greater than the number

and

$(7)/(3)=2.34\n\nbut\n\n(25)/(18)=1.38$

1.38<2.34 i.e.

$(25)/(18)<(7)/(3)$

So, Option 'C' is correct.

Convert the mixed number 1 2/3 into an improper fraction first by multiplying the denominator by the whole number part and add the numerator to get the new numerator. Place the new numerator over the old denominator.

5 * 5/6 * 3

Multiply 5 by 5 to get 25.

25/6 * 3

Multiply 6 by 3 to get 18.

25/18

1 7/18

#8 Dylan, Mike and Jeremy had $171. Mike had twice as much money as Dylan. Jeremy had three times as much money as Mike. How much money did Jeremy have?#9 we skipped this one

#10. Maddy had twice as many stamps as Simon. After Maddy sold 60 stamps, Sinom had twice as many stamps as Maddy. How many more stamps did Maddy have than Simon in the beginning?

Answers

Answer:

8. $114

10. 60 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Dylan have d, Mike have m, and Jeremy have j

3 of them have 171, so we can write:

1. $d + m + j = 171$

Mike has twice as Dylan, so we can write:

2. m = 2d

Jeremy had three times as Mike, so:

3. j = 3m

We can write equation 3 as m = j/3

Also, if we put this into equation 2, we have:

j/3=2d

d=j/6

Now we have d and m in terms of j. We put it into equation 1 and solve for j:

$(j)/(6) + (j)/(3) + j = 171\n(3j+6j+18j)/(18)=171\n(27j)/(18)=171\n27j=18*171\n27j=3078\nj=(3078)/(27)\nj=114$

Jaime has $114

10.

amount of stamps Maddy has is m and amount Simon has is s

Maddy had twice as many stamps as Simon:

m = 2s

Also

After Maddy sold 60 stamps, Sinom had twice as many stamps as Maddy:

s+60=2(m-60)

We put the first equation in the second and solve for s:

s+60=2(m-60)

s+60=2(2s-60)

s+60=4s-120

180=3s

s=60

THus, m = 2(60) = 120

So maddy had 120 - 60 = 60 more stamps than Simon
