Answer to Problem 46HP
Explanation of Solution
Given:
An agricultural survey determined that353917 milk cows produced 768 million pounds of milk.
Concept Used:
Rules of Addition/ Subtraction:
- Two numbers with similar sign always get added and the resulting number will carry the similar sign.
- Two numbers with opposite signs always get subtracted and the resulting number will carry the sign of larger number.
Rules of Multiplication/ Division:
- The product/quotient of two similar sign numbers is always positive.
- The product/quotient of two numbers with opposite signs is always negative.
Calculation:
Since the number of pounds of milk produced is larger than the number of milk cows, so divide the number of milk produced by the number of milk cows and simplify further as shown below,
So, it means that per cow produced 2220.85 pound of milk.
