Tuition for one year at the community college sean would like to attend is about $8,880. sean plans to save money each month for the next 2 years to pay for his first year. if his parents plan to contribute $6,000 toward his first year, what is the minimum about sean must save each month to have enough money to pay for his first year of tuition? a) $60 b) $80 c) $120 d) $240

c

Step-by-step explanation:

he needs 8880.  and his parents contribute 6000.  so we subtract 6000 from the price of the tuition,  bc his parents are paying for 6000 of the 8880 and we get 2880.  there are 12 months in a year and he saves up every month for two years,  so we multiply 12 by 2 to get 24.  then we divide 2880 by 24 and you get 120.  i hope this helps

the answer is c

Step-by-step explanation:

your exact question is kind of difficult to understand, so maybe an example will explain what you're supposed to do? i'll work through the first problem on the worksheet.

suppose you have a tray of 652 brownies, and you have 5 friends that you want to feed without picking favorites. how many brownies can you dole out to each of your friends in equal amounts? how many will be left over for you to eat?

what you're doing here is finding a way to arrange the number 652 as the sum of integer multiple of 5 and some remainder:

here ("q" for quotient) is the number of brownies each of your friends get, and is the remainder. that's the basic idea behind division.

we break up the number 652 into parts so that the leading digit stands on its own:

652 = 600 + 52

first we check if it's possible to hand out exactly 100 brownies to each friend. with 5 friends, this means we want to know if we can take out 500 brownies from the tray. we can do this 1 time because we have 600 brownies to take from, and when we do that we're left with 100 + 52 brownies to divvy up. so we know that

652 = 1*500 + 152

next we want to know if it's possible to hand out exactly 10 brownies per friend. if we can, we have to remove 50 brownies from the tray each time until we can't. we have 152 brownies left, and we know that 3(50) = 150, so

152 = 3*50 + 2

now we have 2 brownies left in the tray. is it possible to hand 1 out to each of your 5 friends? no, you'd need a minimum of 5 brownies to do that. so the last 2 are yours.

putting everything together, we found that

652 = 1*500 + 3*50 + 2

and we can rearrange this to write

652 = 5*100 + 5*30 + 2

652 = 5(100 + 30) + 2

652 = 5*130 + 2

so and .
