We are given statement " John read the first 114 pages of a novel, which was 3 pages less than 1/3 of the novel".

Let us assume total number of pages of a novel = p pages.

3 less than 1/3 of total pages = 114.

3 less then 1/3 of P is = 114.

answer: the answer is 5/22

step-by-step explanation: if you subtract 17 from 22 the answer is 5 therefore the remainder of students are female

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
