Jars A, B, and C each contain 8 marbles. What is the minimum number of marbles that must be transferred among the jars so that the ratio of the number of marbles in jar A to the number in jar B to the number in jar C is 1:2:3?
4. Since jars A, B, and C each contain 8 marbles, there are 24 marbles in the three jars. Let x, 2x, and 3x represent the new numbers of marbles in jars A, B, and C, respectively. Hence, x + 2x + 3x = 24 or 6x = 24, so x=4.

There are 500 books at Grace Academy, spread out between the rooms. There are three times as many books in the library as in the 8th grade classroom. The 7th and 8th grade classrooms have the same number of books. The 6th and 5th grade classrooms have 45 fewer books than the 7th and 8th grade classrooms. There are 30 books in the faculty lounge. This equation represents the books at Grace Academy.

double points: simplify the equation and find the number of books in the library.

500 = 3x + 2(x) + 2 (x - 45) + 30


500 = 7x - 60

There are 240 books in the library.

Fruit for a dessert costs $1.20 a pound. If 5 pounds of fruit are needed to make a dessert that serves 18 people, what is the cost of the fruit needed to make enough of the same dessert to serve 24 people?
$8.00. If 5 pounds of fruit serve 18 people, then 5/18 pound serves one person, so 24 x 5/18 = 20/3 pounds. Since the fruit costs $1.20 a pound, the cost of the fruit needed to serve 24 people is 20/3 x $1.20 = $8.00.

Working alone, Bill takes three times the amount of time to paint a fence that Mike takes. If Bill and Mike work together, they can paint the fence in 2 hours. If Mike works at the same rate as when he worked with Bill, this is how long would it take Mike working alone to paint the same fence.

What is 2 hours and 40 minutes?

If x represents the number of hours it takes Mike working alone to paint the fence, then 3x is the number of hours it takes Bill working alone to paint the fence. So 2(1/x) + 2(1/3x) = 1 gives x=8/3 hours.
