Answer:
95/3 = 31
31 ratio for 2 and 1 then make up the difference
there were 25 point and 45 ...1 point shots
but 32 x 3 makes 96 you will see the top answer is correct 25 2 points and 45 one points as we can distribute 50 and 45 easily as a fair 6/10 and 4/10 balance of 95 just like we do to find 60% of 95 or 40% of 95.
Hi Samantha heres an example for both questions see if you can try add the items and find a multiple to 95 for this question then divide by 3 and distribute like this example below which answers your other question about popcorn.
Explanation:
462 = revenue
282 = amount sold
$1 = small
$3 = large
1. we add the amounts together = $4
2. We divide 462/4 = 460/4 = 115 so we are 2 out
3. In our workings we show 4 less +2 less = 4 x 115 = 460 +2 =462-6
456
111 = small $1
456-111 = 345 + 6 = 351 ( large $3 as we were 4+2 less we add 6 = 351
351/3 = 119 large. (we divide by price $3)
111 = small.(we keep)
To find equations
we know know on our workings we have 111 +351 we can call these s and l
s111 + l351 = s111 + l119
462 = 230
462/230 = 2sl mean price.
=====
We plug in again to find 1
462/230 + 1 = 2sl(+l)+x
1s x 1^2 x 1l^2 x x = 1 we rearrange the 1
1s x 1^2 x 3l we replace ^2 with 1
1s x 1 x 3l = 1
1 x 3l = 1/1s
3l = 1s
====
Now we can match s and l
3 / 1 + 4 = 460l
3 / 1 = 460/4l
3 / 1 = 120l
1 x 120-3l
1 x 117l
117 ( 351/3) = L you cna try rewriting this ( ) plug in in a new equation just added to show you how it works.
l = 357 = L I wrote capitals as the l looked like a number.
When we subtract total 462- 351 = s then s = 111
When you understand minus 6 may have made things more tricky try another number where the total 462 is rounded up by 3 to 465 or 470 an work in 30's and 10's then divide by 10 may be of some help/reflection to designing equations it helps you remember alternatives to find out distribution.
