Answer:
Since Sam's parents said they would pay half, Sam has to pay the half = $18990/2=$9495
now, Sam needs $9495 to buy a car
& he's now sacking groceries where he gets $7.25 per hour.
He works for 20 hours a week = $7.25 x 20= $145
i.e. He earns $145 a week .
Now, let's find how many weeks it takes to save $9495
i.e. by dividing $145 by $9495= 9495/145=64.48
=> It takes 65 weeks or 16 months 1 week or 1 year 4 months 1 week to save enough money to buy a car
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Q.1 66 weeks
Q.2 $94.55
Q.3 $19.25
Q.4 328.84 kg
Q.5 1.41 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Q.1
We know that,
Sam is buying a car for $18,990, but his parents agreed to pay half of it
Thus, amount to be made by Sam = 18,990 × (1/2)
= 18,990/2 = $9,495
Thus, he needs to make $9495
He goes for a job which pays him $7.25 per hour and he works for 20 hrs per week
Thus,
he gets = 7.25 × 20 = $145 per week
Now, to get $9495 he must work,
9495/145 = 65.48
= 66 weeks (approximately) to earns enough money for the car.
Remember, we won't round it down because he needs minimum 65.48 weeks to get $9495 so, we must always round up the time, similarly, for interest, earnings, etc.
Q.2
Kimberly's money = $98
Christine's money = $3.45
Thus, the money Kimberly has more than Christine = 98 - 3.45
= $94.55
Q.3
We know that,
Beverly earned $789.25 in 41 hours.
Thus, In 1 hour she earned = 789.25/41
= $19.25
Q.4
We know that,
The weight of the baby elephant was 218.99 kg and then after 2 years it increased by 109.85 kg.
Thus, his/her total weight at present = 218.99 + 109.85
= 328.84 kg
Q.5
Julia has cut 8.46 m long string into 6 pieces
then,
1 piece = 8.46 ÷ 6
= 1.41 m
Hope it helped and you understood it........All the best
