Two bags of miniature candy bars can be purchased for $5.00. How many bags could be bought for $25.00?
Blank Space__________bags
To find the number of bags that can be bought for $25.00, we can set up a proportion:
Let x be the number of bags that can be bought for $25.00.
We know that 2 bags cost $5.00, so we can set up the proportion:
2 bags / $5.00 = x bags / $25.00
To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:
2 * $25.00 = $5.00 * x
$50.00 = $5.00 * x
Dividing both sides of the equation by $5.00:
$50.00 / $5.00 = x
10 = x
So, 10 bags can be bought for $25.00.

Phileas Fogg was the hero of Jules Verne's adventure novel Around the World in Eighty Days. The distance around the earth is about 25,000 miles. How far was Fogg able to travel in one day?
To find how far Phileas Fogg was able to travel in one day, we need to divide the total distance around the earth (25,000 miles) by the number of days it took him to travel around the world (80 days).
Distance traveled in one day = Total distance / Number of days
Distance traveled in one day = 25,000 miles / 80 days
Simplifying the division:
Distance traveled in one day = 312.5 miles
Therefore, Phileas Fogg was able to travel approximately 312.5 miles in one day.

Marcia needs 50 centimeters of braid to trim a wall hanging. How many hangings can she trim with 3 meters of braid?
To find out how many wall hangings Marcia can trim with 3 meters of braid, we first need to convert meters to centimeters.
1 meter = 100 centimeters
So, 3 meters is equal to 3 * 100 = 300 centimeters.
Now, we divide the total length of braid (300 centimeters) by the length of braid needed for one wall hanging (50 centimeters).
Number of hangings trimmed = Total length of braid / Length of braid needed for one hanging
Number of hangings trimmed = 300 centimeters / 50 centimeters
Simplifying the division:
Number of hangings trimmed = 6
Therefore, Marcia can trim 6 wall hangings with 3 meters of braid.

A 4.3 ounce tomato has about 24 calories. How many calories are in one ounce?
Blank Space__________calories per ounce
To find out how many calories are in one ounce, we need to calculate the number of calories per ounce.
We know that a 4.3 ounce tomato has about 24 calories.
To find the number of calories per ounce, we divide the total calories by the total ounces:
Calories per ounce = Total calories / Total ounces
Calories per ounce = 24 calories / 4.3 ounces
Simplifying the division:
Calories per ounce ≈ 5.58 calories per ounce
Therefore, there are approximately 5.58 calories in one ounce.

An office supply store advertises 6 pens for $9.30. How much would each pen cost at this rate?
To find out how much each pen would cost at the rate advertised by the office supply store, we divide the total price by the number of pens.
The store advertises 6 pens for $9.30.
To find the cost per pen, we divide the total price by the number of pens:
Cost per pen = Total price / Number of pens
Cost per pen = $9.30 / 6 pens
Simplifying the division:
Cost per pen ≈ $1.55
Therefore, each pen would cost approximately $1.55 at this rate.

Bananas sell for $.46 per pound. Is $2.00 enough to buy four pounds of bananas?
Type yes or no.
Blank Space__________
To determine if $2.00 is enough to buy four pounds of bananas, we need to calculate the total cost of four pounds of bananas at the price of $0.46 per pound.
Total cost of four pounds of bananas = Price per pound * Number of pounds
Total cost of four pounds of bananas = $0.46 * 4 pounds
Total cost of four pounds of bananas = $1.84
Since $1.84 is less than $2.00, it is enough to buy four pounds of bananas.
Answer: Yes.
