The Freeman family is barbecuing veggie burgers, corn cobs, and mushroom caps in their local park. If 3/8 of the items barbecued are veggie burgers, and 1/3 of the items barbecued are corn cobs, what fraction of barbecued items are mushroom caps?

7/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Everything they are grilling is an amount of 1.

Then each item is a fraction of 1.

Add 3/8 and 1/3 and subtract from 1.

3/8 + 1/3 = 9/24 + 8/24 = 17/24

The veggie burgers and corn account for 17/24 of the total.

To find the fraction of mushroom, we subtract 17/24 from 1.

1 - 17/24 = 24/24 - 17/24 = 7/24

7/24

total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is $98

step-by-step explanation:

given a united states citizen returning to the states declares the following items at the customs office: 3 shirts at $8.50 each 2 dresses at $27.50 each 1 pair of gold cuff links at $17.50 per pair. we have to find how much he pay

cost of 3 shirts if one cost at $8.50 is

cost of 2 dresses if one cost at $27.50 is  

cost of 1 pair of gold cuff at $17.50

so, total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is   $25.5+$55+$17.50=$98
