Problema Solution
Mrs. Barritz is packing food bags for the sick. Because of the special health needs of the people to whom they will be delivered, 15 less than one fourth of the bags will include some diabetic food.
What is the expression that represents the amount of food b=
Answer provided by our tutors
This question is awkwardly worded but it appears that 'b' represents the total number of bags of food, so we will let 'd' represent the number of diabetic bags of food, so that since "15 less than one fourth of the bags will include some diabetic food":
d = (b/4)-15
solving for 'b' we have:
b=(d+15)*4
