Question

A farmer has 180 bushels of apples to sell at his roadside stand. He sells an average of 14 3/5 bushels each day. Represent the total change in the number of bushels he had for sale after 6 days.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial value: 180

Sold each day: 14.6

Amount after day 6: ?

day 6 = x

y = amount left

180 - 14.6x = y

180 - 14.6(6) = y

180 - 87.6 = y

y = 92.4
