Callie bought a bag of dried fruit: cherries, pears, and apples. in the bag, 1/4 of the dried fruit is cherries and 2/3 of the remainder is pears. there are 48 pear pieces. how many pieces of fruit are apples?

6 pieces of apples

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 = 3/12 = cherries

2/3 = 8/12= pears

8 times 6 equals 48

pears = 48/72

cherries = 18/72

pears + cherries = 66/72

apples = 72/72 - 66/72

apples = 6/72 = 1/12

well there are two answers for that.

1: you need 120 ones then that will equal up to 120.

2: you could also do one 100 and 2 tens.

those are the answers that i have thought of.

the inequality is:

250c+180g≥950

step-by-step explanation:

let c denotes the number of days in a week   miyoko worked as a cryptographer.

and g denotes the number of days in a week she works as a geologist.

now we are given that she earns $250 for every day she works as a cryptographer,and earns $180 for every day she works as a geologist.

now miyoko's goal is to earn more than $950 this week.

hence, the inequality could be represented as:

250c+180g≥950
