Lamont's buys 9 gallons of ice cream. He has 34 guests coming. If each guest eats 2 1/2 cups, how many pints will he have left?
Answers
Answer 1
Answer:
We know that 1 gallon is equal to 16 cups. So 9 gallons is 144 cups. each guest eats 2.5 cups, and there are 34 guests, 2.5 times 34 = 85, the amount eaten by the guests. So to figure out whats left, subtract the eaten from the total. 144-85=59 59 is the answer. hope it helped :)
Which math expression represents the phrase?9 times the sum of a number and 7

B.
9 · (n + 7)
C.
9 · (n – 7)
D.
9 · (n · 7)
Answers
"The sum of a number and 7" Sum implies addition. We would write this part as n + 7.
Then we would write the "9 times" part in like this: 9 ·(n + 7) We can't write just 9 · n + 7 without the parentheses, because then we would be multiplying just 9 and n instead of 9 and the sum of n and 7. (order of operations says we must do multiplication first)
can someone explain to me how to use "squared"? I do 2+2 and its four. but when I do 3+3 and I get 6, my brother tells me that's not squared. can you help me out?
Answers
Yes. You've come to the right place. I can help. To "square" a number means to MULTIPLY it by itself . . . NOT add it to itself. '2' is the ONLY number that gives the same result both ways. The square of 3 is 3 times 3 = 9 . The square of 6 is (6 times 6) = 36.

How do i turn 24% into a fraction
Answers
You can remove the % sign if you divide the number by 100:
This is because % is defined as 1/100, and the name (per-cent) actually meant this originally! we can also simplify it: let's divide it by 4:

How is it that a square is a rectangle but a rectangle ins't a square?
Answers
beacuse A square by definition is a "plane figure having four equal sides." Rectangles' sides are not equal and hence cannot be a square.
A rectangle by definition is a "four-sided plane figure with 4 right angles" - which also implies that a square can be a rectangle because it is also a four-sided plane figure with 4 right angles...... hope this helps
The definition of a square is a plane figure with four equal straight sides and four right angles. The definition of a rectangle is a plane figure with four right sides and four right angles. To be a rectangle you just need four straight sides and four right angles, but to be a square all those sides have to be equal. Therefore, a square is a rectangle because it has four straight sides and four right angles, but a rectangle isn't a square (or not always) because it doesn't have four equal straight sides.
