1 answer:
Capucine played a game where she earned 179 points from building 11 museums and 4 libraries.
Lets assume x points she earn per library
She earns 4 more points for museum than library.
4 more points per museum per x . so the points earned per museum is x+4
she earned 179 points from 11 museums and 4 libraries.
So the equation becomes
( subtract 44 from both sides)
(divide by 15 from both sides)
x = 9
She earns 9 points per library
We know points per museum = x+4 = 9+4 = 13
She earns 13 points per museum .

You have not provided the options, therefore, I cannot give you an exact answer.
However, I will try to help you with the concept.
<u>First, we need to make all units the same in the problem. I will convert all units to ml.</u>
We have:
amount of bleach = 15 ml
amount of water = 3.75 liters = 3.75 * 1000 = 3750 ml
<u>Now, we will get the ratio between bleach and water:</u>
<u>This ratio is fixed, therefore, to get the right choice:</u>
1- make all units the same
2- for each option, divide the amount of bleach by the amount of water.
The correct choice would be the one giving you
Hope this helps :)
