@grace111 : Your statement sounds as though you're asking your audience for answers and will reward the best one. OpenStudy's Code of Conduct expressly forbids doing that. Please do not start posts with "Medal for best answer !" again.

What is important to me is that YOU learn how to solve problems like this yourself.

Answer 5

if u add 4+4+4 that equals 12 so if you add 8 euros 3 times it will equal 24

Answer 6

4 kg of potatoes cost £ 8 . Please find the unit cost (the cost per kg).

Answer 7

Ladies and Gentlemen: Hold it, please. @grace111 is using the British pound as her unit of measurement, and we're going to stick with that unit of measurement.

Answer 8

I mean " Medal for best answer ! " I'll give medal to that person who explains this to me the best .

Answer 9

the answer is right 8*3

Answer 10

@grace111 First find out how much 1 kg of potatoes costs. If 4kg costs 8 pounds, then 1 kg costs ???

Set it up as a ratio:



Solve for x.

Once you know how much one costs, you can multiply that by 12 to find out how much 12 kgs costs.

Of course, once you know about setting up this ratio, you can just go directly to:



and solve for x.

All the best.
