He had 40 pencils left after he gave away 8, so originally he had 40 + 8 pencils, which is 48.
Now, he bought 4 packages, which had a total of 48 pencils, so divide 48 by 4, which is 12. He had 12 pencils in each package.
To determine the solution arithmetically, first add 8 to 40, then divide 48 by 4.
To determine the solution algebraically, set up and solve the equation 40 = 4x - 8.
Each package contained 12 pencils.
Hope this helps
First align the decimal points and the numbers, then add the extra 0's if needed. Lastly, add and the total answer is 14.225.

Answer: 56/65</h3>
Work Shown:
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(F) = EG/FE
sin(F) = 56/65
Refer to the diagram below.
So then n=number of long distance calls, then add the flat rate
long distance cost=number of calls times cost per clll or n times 0.42 or 0.42n
the flat rate is 24
so total is c so
c=24+0.42n
