During the first hour of operation the farm stand owner sold 15% of the apples he had. on the second hour he sold 20% of the remaining apples. on the third hour he sold 25% of the remaining apples, and so on, selling 5% more each following hour. if during the third hour he sold 34 kg of apples, how many kilograms of apples did he have initially?

75 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

%25 of ___ will give you 34.

x 0.20 = 34

= 34/0.20

34/0.20=170

___=170

the best buy, is the 4- kilogram bag of lollipops for $18.40.

step-by-step explanation:

i found my answer by dividing the cost of each bag by their respective weights.

14.88 divided by 2 = 7.44

17.29 divided by 3 = 5.77

18.4 divided by 4 = 4.6

24.4 divided by 5 = 4.88

by this, i found that the 4 kilo bag is the best buy.

1gm = 1000mg so 0.1gm = 1000mg

first, convert the weight to kg

160lb * 1kg/2.2lb = 72.7kg

next, the dose

72.7kg * 100mg/kg = 7270mg
