If there are 50 cups of rice for a group of five people who have a combined weight of 880 pounds, determine how many cups each person should get per 100 pounds. Round to the nearest tenth of a cup.

28.4 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

If 5 people have a combined weight of 880 pounds, each person sould have a weight of 880/5 = 176 pounds.

Now, we can set up a proportion:

Cross Multiply:

176x = 5000

x = 5000/176 = 28.4 cups

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!

it is c, trust i got your back lol
