Joe and Steve went to a chocolate shop and got some fudge. The fudge cost $32 per kilogram. Joe ordered 75 grams of fudge. Steve ordered 235 grams of fudge. How much did each person pay? How much MORE did Steve pay than Joe?

Joe paid $2.4; Steve paid $7.52

Steve paid $5.12 more than Joe

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of I Kg fudge = $32

But we know that 1 kg =1000g

That is to now say that

Cost of  1000g of fudge = $32

a)

If Joe ordered 75 grams of fudge then he paid

Now 1000g of fudge = $32

75g  of fudge will cost =75 x 32 /1000 =$2.4

also .

b) 235 grams of fudge ordered by Steve will cost

235 x 32 / 1000=$7.52

Therefore, Steve paid $5.12 ($7.52-$2.4)  more than Joe

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
