Astore sells grass seed in small bags and large bags. the small bags have 7 pounds of seed for 27.93 and large bags cost 66.98.write a ratio of price to pound for each bag?

Answer

Find out the ratio of price to pound for each bag.

To prove

As given

A store sells grass seed in small bags and large bags.the small bags have 7 pounds of seed for $27.93 .

7 pound = $27.93

Now find out the cost for the 1 pound.

1 pound cost = $3.99

As given large bags cost $66.98.

Now find out pounds in the large bags.

Let us assume that the number of pounds in the large bags be x.

Than

3.99 × x = 66.98

x = 16.8 pounds (approx)

Now find out the ratio of  price to pound for each bag.

As small bags weight = 7 pounds

Cost of the small bags = $27.93

As large bags weight = 16.8 pounds

Cost of the large bags = $66.98

Hence proved

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.
