"Alaina’s sugar cookie recipe calls for 2 1/4
cups of flour per batch. If she wants to make 2/3
a batch of cookies, how much flour should she use?"
1 1/2 Cups, if she wants to make less than the original recipe, she would need less flour, you have to divide.
What I would do is find the common denominator for both fractions. The common denominator in this case would be 24 seeing as both 3 and 8 go into 24 evenly. 1/3 would equal to 8/24 by multiplying both 1 and 3 by 8 and 3/8 would equal to 9/24 by multiplying both 3 and 8 by 3. Add 8 and 9 from the fractions 8/24 and 9/24 which would give you 17/24. To find the remaining section of the circle, subtract 17 from 24 which would give you 7/24. 7/24 doesn't reduce any further so your answer would be 7/24 of the circle is shaded.
Answer:
The price for each kilogram of strawberries is $7.50
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The question is</em></u>
Blues berry farm charges Percy a total of $24.75 for entrance and 2.5 kilograms of strawberries. The entrance fee is $6 and the price for each kilogram of strawberries is constant
Determine the price for each kilogram of strawberries
Let
x ----> the price for each kilogram of strawberries
we know that
The entrance fee plus the price of each kilogram of strawberries multiplied by the number of kilogram of strawberries must be equal to $24.75
so
The linear equation that represent this situation is
solve for x
subtract 6 both sides
divide by 2.5 both sides
therefore
The price for each kilogram of strawberries is $7.50
Answer:
We need 5 bags of Vigoro Ultra Turf and 4 bags of Parkers Premium fertilizer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first list the percentage compositions of each fertilizer type:
<u>Vigoro Ultra Turf:</u>
Nitrogen (N) = 29 kg
Phosphoric Acid (P2O5) = 3 kg
Potash (K2O) = 4 kg
<u>Parkers Premium</u>
Nitrogen (N) = 18 kg
Phosphoric Acid (P2O5) = 25 kg
Potash (K2O) = 6 kg
We can set up simultaneous equations to find out the amount of 100 kg bags of each fertilizer needed:
x = Vigoro Ultra turf (one bag)
y = Parkers Premium (one bag)
29x + 18y = 217 -Equation 1
3x + 25y = 115 -Equation 2
4x + 6y = 44 -Equation 3
Solving for x and y, we get:
x = 5
y = 4
This means we need 5 bags of Vigoro Ultra Turf and 4 bags of Parkers Premium fertilizer.
