Taylin buys 5 ounces of tea leaves for $2.35. At this rate, how much money does
she need to buy 12 ounces of tea leaves?

$5.64

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the solution, first we need to find the rate per oz.  For 5 ounces it is 2.35 so to find the rate per oz we need to find the solution to 2.35/5

tea leaves sell at a rate of 47 per oz

Now to find how many Taylin needs for 12 oz of tea we simply multiply .47 by 12

0.47 x 12=5.64

Taylin needs $5.64 to buy 12 ounces of tea leaves

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
