See what I mean about tutors
wow - a whole hour, with no one jumping in to help?
Volunteer tutors help when they have time to sit down and take a look.
For me, whiners get lower priority, especially when they post multiple questions with no work of their own.
#1. 573/15 = 38.2
#2. 4494/14 * 2 = ____
#3. (1116+882+1194) / (14*3) = ____
To find the answers to these questions, we need to use basic arithmetic and division.
1. Mr. Longo baked 573 muffins and put them into boxes of 15. To find the number of full boxes, we need to divide 573 by 15.
573 ÷ 15 = 38 remainder 3
The remainder of 3 indicates that there are 3 muffins left after filling the full boxes. So, Mr. Longo will bring 38 full boxes to the game.
Thus, the answer is B. 38.
2. The movie theater sold a total of 4,494 tickets over a two-week period. If the same number of tickets were sold each day, we need to divide the total number of tickets by the number of days in two weeks (14 days) to find the number of tickets sold per day.
4,494 ÷ 14 = 321
Therefore, the movie theater sold 321 tickets per day. To find the number of tickets sold on Wednesday and Thursday of one week (two days), we simply multiply 321 by 2.
321 × 2 = 642
Hence, the answer is B. 642.
3. To find the number of customers who arrived each hour during the three days, we have to divide the total number of customers by the total number of hours the store was open (14 hours for each day).
For Monday: 1,116 customers ÷ 14 hours = 79.71 customers per hour (rounded to the nearest whole number)
For Tuesday: 882 customers ÷ 14 hours = 63 customers per hour
For Wednesday: 1,194 customers ÷ 14 hours = 85.29 customers per hour (rounded to the nearest whole number)
Since the question asks for the same number of customers arriving each hour during the three days, we can take the average of these three calculations.
(79.71 + 63 + 85.29) ÷ 3 = 228 ÷ 3 = 76
Consequently, the answer is C. 76.
