Michelle has some stamps.her sister has half as much stamps as she does.they have 1,080 stamps in all.how many stamps does Michelle have

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: ok so there are 2 ppl in this scenario… one of which has half the amount of the other… there for we can divide this TOTAL amount (1,080) by 3
1080 divided by 3 is 360
so her sister has 360 stamps
there r still 2 groups of the problem remaining (360 and 360)
and since her sister was half of what she has.. and her sister has 360
we must add 360 to 360
so the answer is 720

Answer 2

Answer:

Final answer:

To solve this problem, we set up the equation 'x + 0.5x = 1,080' to represent the relationship between the number of stamps Michelle has and the total number of stamps. Upon solving this equation, we find that Michelle has 720 stamps.

Explanation:

The problem indicates that Michelle's sister has half as many stamps as Michelle does, and together they have 1,080 stamps. We can represent this relationship algebraically using 'x' as a placeholder for the number of stamps that Michelle has.

Therefore, we can express the fact that Michelle's sister has half as many stamps as Michelle does as '0.5x'. The total amount of stamps they both have is expressed as 'x + 0.5x = 1,080'. Simplifying the equation we get '1.5x = 1,080'.

Dividing both sides of the equation by 1.5 gives us 'x = 1,080 / 1.5', which results in 'x = 720'. Therefore, Michelle has 720 stamps.

Carly is making three cakes for the bake sale. The second cake requires 1/2 cup more flour the the first cake. The third cake requires twice the amount of flour as the first cake. The two-pound bag of flour she bought has 8/1/2 cups-exactly the amount she needs. How much flour is needed for each cake

Answers

So, the first cake needs x cups of flower. The second x+1/2 and the third 2x

in total this is x+x+1/2+2x=4x+1/2.

this is equal to8/1/2

soo

$4x+ (1)/(2) =8 (1)/(2)$

$4x= 8 (1)/(2)- (1)/(2)$
4x=8
x=2

this is the first cake, the second will have 2 $(1)/(2)$

and the last one twice as much as the first, so 4
