Answer:
i believe the correct answer here is 53
Step-by-step explanation:
so if 1 cookie is 70 cents, then you determine how many cookies is $36.90
you use proportion and say(convert to cents)
70: 1
3690: more
and calculating using proportion, you get 52.714285714286 and when you round it off it’s 53. to prove your answer you say 0.7 × 52.7 = 36.9
Answer:
.70x + 14.50= 36.90 x=32
Step-by-step explanation:
0.7x=36.9-14.5
0.7x=22.4
x=32
