the post office sold 900 stamps yesterday.1/4 of the stamps are postcard stamps. How many postcard stamps did they sell?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 1/4 = .25 or 25%
a(postcard stamps) = .25(percentage of postcard stamps) * 900(total of stamps)
900 * .25 = 225 
They sold 225 postcard stamps

To check:
225 * 4 = 900 
Answer 2
Answer: Hello! To solve this problem you can convert 1/4 into a decimal (0.25), and then multiply that decimal by 900. You multiply the two because 25% (1/4) percent of the stamps are postcard stamps, thus by doing so you're able to determine how many of the stamps were postcard stamps. You should get an answer of 225 stamps.

What is greater than 6200 feet or one mile and 900 feet

Answers

One mile is 5280 feet, so when you add 900 to that, it ends up being 6180 feet, so 6200 feet is greater.

We should convert either of them to have the same unit to compare.

1 mile = 5280 feet 

Add 1 mile (in feet) to 900 feet.
5280 + 900 = 6180 feet

6200 feet > 6180 feet

6200 feet is greater

Jill bought a pound of strawberries for $4.00. What is the price, in dollars, per ounce of strawberries? (1lb = 16 oz)Jill will pay $ per ounce of strawberries.

Answers

The price of per ounce of strawberries is $ 0.25.

To understand more, check below explanation.

Pounds to ounce conversion:

As we know that,

  One pound = 16 Ounce

Since, Jill bought a pound of strawberries for $4

It means that,

Price of 16 Ounces of strawberries = $ 4

So taht,  Price of one ounce of strawberries =(4)/(16)=\$ 0.25

Hence, the price of per ounce of strawberries is $ 0.25.

Each ounce is 25 cents. Multiply .25 by 16 and you get 4.

Given AABC. m LA= 39°
MLB=104°
AC= 20cm
mLC=
AB =
CB -

Answers

Answer:

∠C = 37° ,

AB = 26.54 cm ,

BC= 33.27 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in triangle ABC

∠A = 39°                       AC = 20 cm

∠B = 104°

sum of all the three angles of triangle = 180°

So,    ∠C = 180° - ( ∠A + ∠B)

         ∠C = 180° - (39° + 104°)

         ∠C = 37°

Now Tan 37° = (AC)/(AB)

    Or, AB =  (20)/(tan 37°)

    So, AB = 26.54 cm

Again, Sin 37° = (AC)/(BC)

       So, BC = (20)/(sin 37°)

       Or, BC = (20)/(0.601)

        ∴   BC= 33.27 cm

Hence ∠C = 37° , AB = 26.54 cm , BC= 33.27 cm       Answer

Which answer describes the simpler problems that could be used to solve this story problem? Emily paid a total of $109.95 for 4 pairs of sandals and a pair of boots. Each pair of sandals cost the same amount. The pair of boots cost $29.99. How much did 1 pair of sandals cost?

A.
Subtract the cost of the boots from the total cost. Divide that answer by 4.

B.
Add the cost of the sandals and the cost of the boots. Divide the sum by 4.

C.
Multiply the total cost by 4. Subtract the cost of the boots.

D.
Divide the total cost by 4. Add the cost of the boots.

Answers

A. Take out the cost of the boots since you know how much they are. Then divide by 4 since the 4 sandals cost the same to figure out how much 1 pair of sandals is. :)
