A bakery sells three varieties of muffins. On a recent morning, the bakery sold 41 blueberry muffins, 27 banana nut muffins, and 20 black muffins. Estimate the total number of muffins sold.

We extrapolate the values of a line between 10 and 15 on y-axis to meet the curve and drop another line from the intersection of the curve to meet the x-axis and read off the age of the car.

Now, let’s extrapolate in the following diagram

The intersection of the line and the x-axis is between 4 and 5 years. This means that the car is about 4.5 years old. From the options given, the age of the car is more than 3 years old.

A whole pizza is equivalent to 1. Then

One friend eats half of the pizza=1/2 of 1=1/2*1=1/2

Remaining amount of pizza to be shared=1-1/2=2/2-1/2=1/2

Now, three friends share ½ equally and each friend will get,

Thus, the three friends each share 1/6.

To answer this question, we need to observe the trend of the number of days with dollars. On day 2, the dollars were 8, after 5 days, the dollars decreased to 3, after 13 days, the dollars increased to 10. After 14 days, the dollars declined to 6 and again rose to 16 dollars after 19 days.

From this observation, we cannot be able to establishany correlation between days and dollars.

We need to perform a series of numerical dimensional analysis to find the number of bags sugar needed for 300 people.

We are told that 50 people need 4 cups of sugar. This can be interpretated as:

Or

Also, one bag of sugar contains 6 cups. This can also be presented as:

Or

We use the second option relating number of people and cups, and second option relating cups of sugar and bag of sugar to find for number of bags of sugar needed for 300 people.

Therefore, 300 people will need 4 bags of sugar.

we are asked to change 400 mg to g. We use the conversion 1g=1000mg, which we can write as:

So, 400 mg to g becomes

We can interpret ‘cannot exceed” as less than ‘<’. Therefore, in our inequality, the symbol < must be included. Now let’s convert the word problem into a mathematical inequality.

Money spent on supplies=s

Money spent on textbooks=t

Total money spent=money spent on supplies + money spent on textbooks

Total money spent = s+t

But the money spent cannot exceed $12,000. Then,

s+t <$12,000.
However the money spent can still be equal to $12000, as it has not exceeded it.

Therefore, therequired inequality is s + t <= $12,000.

Looking at the given trend, it is observed that the price increases with years. From 2008 to 2012, the price is fairly constant but we expect it to be more than $130,000 in the year 2016. The expected price in 2016 is $140,000.

We are given that 1 teaspoon=4.93 mL, we can interpret it as:

Or

Since we are to find the amount in mL, we look for an option that will cancel teaspoon and remain with mL. The second option is the required conversion, and we proceed as follows:

Therefore, 2.5 teaspoons hold about 12.325 mL.

We are given a mix of fractions and decimals and to compare the numbers, we convert the given decimals to fractions.

4.4 becomes 44/10

4.25 becomes 425/100

Now the set of fractions for comparison are: 9/2, 10/3, 44/10, and 425/100. The least common denominator for 2, 3 and 10 is 300. Then,

9/2*300=1350

10/3*300=1000

44/10*300=1320

425/10*300=1275

From the above products, 9/2 gives the greatest value when the fractions are compared with the least common denominator of the given denominators.

we use the US customary system of units’ equivalent to convert from yards to inches. We know that 1yard=3 ft, and 1 ft =12 inches.

First, convert 2 ¾ into an improper fraction.

Then,
