A recipe for potting soil that makes enough to fill 4 bags calls for 6-1/4 lb of compost. Kailee wants to modify the recipe so that it fills 10 bags.

How many more pounds of compost will Kailee need for the modified recipe than the original recipe calls for?

Answer 18

A. 2-17/32

B. 9--3/8

C.7-13/16

D 15-5/8

Answer 19

A.) 2 - 17/32 = 64/32 - 17/32 = 47/32 = 1 15/32
B.) 9 - (-3/8) = 9 + 3/8 = 72/8 + 3/8 = 75/8 = 9 3/8
C.) 7 - 13/16 = 112/16 - 13/16 = 99/16
D.) 15 - 5/8 = 120/8 - 5/8 = 115/8 = 14 3/8

Answer 26

Melanie’s monthly pay is $5553.60. She usually uses 1/3 of that amount to pay her household expenses, and 2/5 of that amount to pay for tuition. She deposits the rest into her savings account. This month, Melanie deposited twice the amount of money into her savings account than she normally deposits.

How much did she deposit into her savings account this month?

I got 8145.28

Answer 27

4/(6 1/4) = 10/x --- (4 bags to 6 1/4 lbs compost = 10 bags to x lbs compost)
change mixed number to improper fraction
4/(25/4) = 10/x
cross multiply
4x = (25/4)(10)
4x = 250/4
x = (250/4) / 4
x = 250/4 * 1/4
x = 250/16
x = 15 5/9 lbs are needed for 10 bags

modified recipe - original recipe
250/16 - 25/4 = 250/16 - 100/16 = 150/16 = 9 3/8

yep...its B
====================
5553.60/3 = 1851.20 (household expenses)

2/5(5553.60) = 11107.2/5 = 2221.44 (tuition)

5553.60 - (1851.20 + 2221.44) = 5553.60 - 4072.64 = 1480.96 (into savings account)

deposited twice the amount of money..
2(1480.96) = 2961.92

I got something totally different...

Answer 28

so whats your answer.

Answer 29

hold on...let me check again
1/3 + 2/5 = 5/15 + 6/15 = 11/15...leaving 4/15 for account
(4/15) * 5553.6 = 22214.4/15 = 1480.96
1480.96 * 2 = 2961.92

I am getting the same answer doing it different ways....and that answer is $ 2961.92
