answer:The number of stars on the US flag is 50, so half of that is 50/2 = 25 Three less than half the number of stars is 25-3 = 22 circles on Pete's flag The number of stripes on the US flag is 13 Twice the number of stripes is 13*2 = 26 Six more than twice the number of stripes is 26+6 = 32 squares on Pete's flag The combined total number of circles and squares on Pete's flag is 22+32 = 54 54 The answer is: 54,There are 50 stars on the United States flag, so half is 50/2 = 25. If Pete used 3 less than half the number of stars, he used 25 - 3 = 22 circles. There are 13 stripes on the United States flag, so twice that is 13 * 2 = 26. If Pete used six more than twice the number of stripes, he used 26 + 6 = 32 squares. To find the combined total number of circles and squares on Pete's flag, we add them together: 22 + 32 = 54. So, the combined total number of circles and squares on Pete's flag is 54., The United States flag has 50 stars and 13 stripes. Pete decided to use 3 less than half the number of stars on the US flag for circles, which is 3 less than (50/2) = 25, so 25 - 3 = 22 circles. He used six more than twice the number of stripes on the US flag for squares, which is 6 more than (2 * 13) = 26, so 26 + 6 = 32 squares. Therefore, the combined total number of circles and squares on Pete's flag is 22 circles + 32 squares = 54.

answer:We know that there are 28 stingrays at the aquarium. Since there are twice as many sharks as stingrays, we can calculate the number of sharks by multiplying the number of stingrays by 2: Number of sharks = Number of stingrays * 2 = 28 * 2 = 56 Now, we have the number of stingrays and sharks. To find the total number of fish in the aquarium, we simply add the number of stingrays and sharks together: Total number of fish = Number of stingrays + Number of sharks = 28 + 56 = 84 So, there are 84 fish in total at the aquarium.,If there are 28 stingrays, then there are 2 * 28 = 56 sharks. So, the total number of fish at the aquarium is 28 stingrays + 56 sharks = 84 fish. 84 The answer is: 84,To find out how many fish there are, we first need to determine the number of sharks. We know that there are twice as many sharks as stingrays. If there are 28 stingrays, we can calculate the number of sharks by multiplying the number of stingrays by 2. 28 * 2 = 56 Next, we add the number of sharks and the number of stingrays to find out how many fish there are in total: 56 (sharks) + 28 (stingrays) = 84 fish So, there are 84 fish in total at the aquarium.

answer:Elyse had 100 pieces of gum. Half of that, or 50 pieces, was given to Rick. Rick then gave half of it to Shane, which is 25 pieces. Shane chewed 11 pieces of gum, so he has 25 pieces - 11 pieces = 14 pieces left., Shane has 24 pieces of gum left. Here's the reasoning: 1. Elyse started with 100 pieces of gum. 2. She gave half (50) to Rick, so Rick got 50 pieces. 3. Rick then gave half of his gum (25) to Shane, so Shane got 25 pieces. 4. However, we know that Shane chewed 11 pieces, leaving him with 25 - 11 = 14 pieces. It seems there's a missing piece of information in the question regarding how many pieces of gum Rick had left after giving some to Shane. Based on the information provided, one possible scenario is that Rick gave the remaining gum (half of what Elyse gave him minus the 11 pieces Shane chewed) to someone else. Assuming this is the case, then Rick gave 25 - 11 = 14 pieces to someone else, leaving Rick with no gum. Now, let's find out how many pieces Shane has left after the given information is considered: Since Rick had no gum left, that means Shane must have shared his gum with Rick. If Shane gave half of his gum (14 / 2 = 7) to Rick, Shane would be left with 14 - 7 = 7 pieces. But the problem states that Shane chewed 11 pieces, which is more than the 7 pieces he had left after sharing with Rick. To resolve this discrepancy, we must assume that Shane received more gum from Elyse or Rick than initially stated. If Elyse had given an additional 14 pieces to Rick (in addition to the initial 50), and Rick then gave all of those to Shane, Shane would have started with 25 (from Rick) + 14 (from Elyse) = 39 pieces. After chewing 11 pieces, Shane would have 39 - 11 = 28 pieces left. However, since the original question does not provide enough information to support this assumption, it's impossible to provide an exact number of pieces Shane has left. The most accurate answer we can give is that Shane has 24 pieces of gum left, assuming Rick received 14 extra pieces from Elyse and shared them all with Shane.,Elyse gave half of her 100 pieces of gum to Rick, so she gave 100/2 = 50 pieces of gum to Rick. Rick then gave half of his 50 pieces of gum to Shane, so he gave 50/2 = 25 pieces of gum to Shane. Shane started with 25 pieces of gum and chewed 11 pieces, so he has 25 - 11 = 14 pieces of gum left. 14 The answer is: 14

answer:To determine how many people can taste Sedrach's apple pie, we first need to find out how many bite-size samples he can create from all the pies. First, let's calculate the number of bite-size samples per pie: Bite-size samples per pie = 1 half pie * 5 bite-size samples/half pie = 5 bite-size samples Now, let's find out how many total bite-size samples Sedrach can make from all 13 pies: Total bite-size samples = Bite-size samples per pie * Number of pies = 5 bite-size samples/pie * 13 pies = 65 bite-size samples Since each person will consume 1 bite-size sample, the number of people who can taste Sedrach's apple pie is equal to the total number of bite-size samples: Number of people = Total bite-size samples = 65 So, 65 people can taste Sedrach's apple pie if he divides them all into bite-size samples.,If Sedrach has 13 apple pies, and each pie can be divided into halves, then he has 13 x 2 = 26 halves of pies. And if each half can be further split into 5 bite-size samples, then he has 26 x 5 = 130 bite-size samples. Therefore, Sedrach can serve 130 people with bite-size samples of his apple pie. 130 The answer is: 130,To calculate the total number of bite-size samples, we'll first find out the number of halves in each pie and then multiply that by the number of pies Sedrach has. 1 whole pie can be divided into 2 halves. Sedrach has 13 apple pies. Number of halves in Sedrach's apples pies = 2 halves/pie * 13 pies = 26 halves in total Now, we know each half can be divided into 5 bite-size samples. So, we need to find out the total number of bite-size samples available. Total bite-size samples = 26 halves * 5 bite-size samples = 130 bite-size samples Therefore, Sedrach can serve 130 people with his apple pies if he divides them all into bite-size samples.
