Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Flour for one full size cake = 4 cups

Flour for 0.5 cake = 4 * 0.5 = 2 cups of flour.

2) Candies per person = 0.1 pound.

Total candies received by 2 friends = 2 * 0.1 = 0.2 pounds.

3) Janet reads 3.40 pages in one minute.

Number of pages read in 3.22 minutes = 3.22 * 3.40 = 10.948 pages.

So approximately 11 pages.

4) 2 rocks weighed 3.3 kg.

Weight of Rock A = 0.1 of total = 0.1 * 3.3 = 0.33 kg

5) Cans collected by friend = 0.87.

Cans collected by Janet = 4 times friend's collection = 4 * 0.87 = 3.48 bags.

6) Soap used by car wash per day = 4.70 liters

Soap used for two days = 2. * 4.7 = 9.4 liters.
