At a butcher shop, bought lb of beef and some pork. Left with lb of meat. Express the number of pounds of pork bought using a decimal. bought nothing lb of pork.

15.11 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

At a butcher shop, Hilda bought 4 17/20 lb of Beef and some pork. She left with 19 24/25 lb of meat. Express the number of pounds of pork she bought using a decimal

so Hilda bought ? lb of pork

Beef = 4 17/20 lb

Pork = x lb

Total Meat = 19 24/25 lb

Using decimal to express the pound of pork she bought, convert the pounds of beef and total meat she bought into decimal

Beef = 4 17/20 lb = 4.85 lb

Total Meat = 19 24/25 lb = 19.96 lb

Total meat = Beef + pork

19.96 lb = 4.85 lb + x lb

Subtract 4.85 from both sides

19.96 - 4.85 = 4.85 + x - 4.85

15.11 = x

x= 15.11 lb

Therefore, pounds of pork she bought = 15.11 lb

no hate

you are playing an adventure game on your computer. you come across a troll who won't let you pass and there is no other way to get to the other side of the river except over the bridge he is guarding.

the troll is a nerd. he takes great delight in watching people struggle with his problems. very few get them. he only gives you one chance and then he changes the puzzle. you have to solve this one.

before you are four blocks. they are numbered 11,6, -7,21.

he tells that the answer he wants is minus and between -1 and - 2. you can use +, -, ×, ÷   ( and ) as many times as you like or no times at all. you don't like the way he's looking at you, but you need to cross the bridge. what do you do?
