Question

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP.

FLOS set up a field trip to Universal Studios (that would be nice!). For each FLOS student going, K12 was willing to spend $40 dollars to assist with ticket sales and food. A total of 150 students went on the field trip. Which equation would be used to solve for the total amount of money K12 spent (x) for the field trip?

A.) x/ 40 = 150

B.) 150x = 40

C.) 40x = 150

D.) 40/ x = 150

E.) 150/ x = 40

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

to solve this problem, we can use the proportion method,

x /40 = 150/1

cross multiply

x (1) = (150)(4)

x = 600
