1. john and carolyn are planning a picnic for some of their friends. in all there will be 28 people. they plan to barbecue steaks for the meal. the recommended weight of a steak for one person is 3⁄4 pound. how many pounds of steak will they need for the picnic?

2. most people know that one quarter of an hour is 15 minutes. perform the appropriate calculation to prove that this is true.

1. 28 x 3/4 = 21 kg

2. 1 hr = 60 mins

=》 1/4 hr = 60/4 = 15mins

1. Total number of people = 8

Steak required for 1 person is = pounds

So, steak required for 28 persons will be :

= 21 pounds

2. Most people know that one quarter of an hour is 15 minutes.

One quarter is written as : or 0.25

And 1 hour has 60 minutes.

So, one quarter has = = 15 minutes

or minutes

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.
