6) You have a bag of candy. You eat half of the candy after lunch and a quarter of what you have left after dinner. Now you have 3 pieces left. How many
candies did you start with?

you started with 6 candies

Step-by-step explanation:

find the sum if 1/2 and 1/4 of the remaining half

1/2+1/4=3/4

therefore 3/4 of the candies has been eaten remaining 1/4 of the candies.

total fractions of candies =1

if 1/4 : 3

then 1: ?

if more, less divides

1÷1/4×3

1×4/1×3

12

there fore the total candies are 12 and since the question asked his much you started with, and you know you started with half of the total, find half of the total

1/2×12=6

step-by-step explanation:

answer:   expression= p+p*d%

price reduction + sale price = $625

sale price: $p+$p*d%

where d% is the percentage of discount

step-by-step explanation:

original price = p

price went down by $150 price reduction $p*d%

sale price= $ 475

therefore the price before sale is: $625

and the expression that shows the price before sale is: p+p*d%
