Question

I have 48 candys for 50cents each, how much total will I have after I sell all 48 candies?

Answer 1

the answer is 2400 cents

Explanation:

if you have 48 candies and each cost 50 cents so u meltiply 48 with 50. so if u mutiply them u get 2400cents, but if u want them in dollar then 1 dollar is 100 cent so if 1 dollar = 100 cent

? = 2400 cent

you criss -cross them so when u do 2400 multiplyed by 1 is 2400 and 100 multiplyed by ? is 100?

so your going to get this

2400 = 100?

so u divide both sides by 100 because u want "?" alone. so when u do 100 will vanish because you divided both sides with 100

so it will look something like this

2400/100 = ?

when u divide 2400 with 100 u get 24.

what does that mean? it mean 2400 cents are 24 dollars

do you get it?
