Jody paid $1.60 for each box of 35 beads. she has 1,400 beads altogether. how much did jody pay in all for the beads. jody repacks the beads into small boxes with 16 beads in each box. how many small boxes does she need?

Hi there!

Here are the important information we know:

1 box = 35 beads = $1.60

Jody has 1,400 beads

1. You'll have to use the cross product method 2 times to find your first answer :

1 box = 35 beads

X box = 1,400 beads

(1 × 1,400) ÷ 35 = X box

1,400 ÷ 35 = X box

40 = X box

This means that Jody bought 40 boxes of beads in order to have a total of 1,400 beads.

1 box = $1.60

40 boxes = $X

(1.60 × 40) ÷ 1 = $X

64 ÷ 1 = $X

64 = $X

This means that in order to have a total of 1,400 beads, Jody had to pay $64.

2. To answer your second question, you'll need to divide the total amout of beads that Jody has (1,400) by the amout of beads she puts in each box (16):

1,400 ÷ 16 = X

87.5 = X

She can only put 16 beads in 87 small boxes, but she will be left with 8 beads that aren't in a box.

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

a) 0.25x times 3. (could be wrong on equation.)

b) 2.25 pound of dark chocolate. (can i eat all the chocolate? plz? anyway, again, could be wrong, but i hope im right. all the chocolate together should be 5.25 pounds)

have a good day!

i'm assuming that it's c.)   volcanoes built the mountains and earthquakes tore them down.
