LISA PURCHASE 200 BEADS FOR $48 TO MAKE A NECKLACE. IF SHE NEEDS TO BUY 25 MORE BEADS,HOW MUCH WILL SHE PAY IF SHE CHARGES THE SAME RATE.
NUMBER OF BEADS 200 ? 25
COST IN DOLLARS 48 ? ?
200/48 = 25/x
Cross multiply and solve for x.
200x = 1200
x = $6.00

To find out how much Lisa will pay if she buys 25 more beads at the same rate, we can use the concept of proportions.
First, we need to set up a proportion using the information we have:
200 beads cost $48
25 beads will cost ? dollars
We can set up the proportion as follows:
200 beads / 25 beads = $48 / x dollars
To solve for x (the cost in dollars for 25 more beads), we can cross-multiply:
200 * x = 25 * $48
Now, we can solve the equation:
200x = $1,200
Dividing both sides by 200:
x = $1,200 / 200
x = $6
Therefore, Lisa will pay $6 if she buys 25 more beads at the same rate.
