If we fill a wheelbarrow with dirt, it ways 60 pounds. When we only fill the wheelbarrow 1/4 full, it weighs 33 pounds. How much does the empty wheelbarrow weigh?

24 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the weight of the empty wheelbarrow X, and the weight of dirt to fill the wheelbarrow Y.

So, we can formulate the following equations:

X + Y = 60

X + (1/4)*Y = 33

Subtracting the second equation from the first one, we have:

3/4 * Y = 27

Y = 27 * 4 / 3 = 36

Now, we can calculate X:

X + 36 = 60

X = 24 pounds

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)

8

step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of gift bags to use all the supplies, find the gcf or greatest common factor. this is the largest number which multiplies evenly into each term.

48 has factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12. 16, 24, 48

80 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

64 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 8, 8, 16, 32, 64

the highest number factor they all share in common is 8. this means there will be 8 bags with 6 pencils, 10 markers, and 8 stickers in each bag.
