what- shaneese is buying peanuts and cashews. she has $12 to spend. peanuts cost $3 per pound and cashews cost $4 per pound. she buys X pounds of peanuts and Y pounds of cashews. Which equation represents the amount of the mix?
3x + 4y = 12
Ben has a bag of cashews and peanuts The ratio of cashews to the total number of nuts in the bag is 16 to 50 What percent of the nuts are peanuts?
If the ratio of cashews to total nuts is 16 to 50, and there are only cashews and peanuts in the bag, then the ratio of peanuts to total nuts is the number of total nuts minus the number of cashew nuts, or 50 - 16 = 34 to 50 To find the percentage of peanuts, divide the number of peanuts by the total number of nuts and multiply that number by 100 to obtain (34/50) x 100% = 68% Note: Depending upon how sly your teacher is, this is a "trick question" because neither cashews nor peanuts are actually "nuts". Peanuts are legumes and cashews are seeds. Therefore, the answer might be: "None of the nuts are peanuts, because peanuts are legumes, like peas or beans, not nuts."

In a nut mixture peanuts cashews pecans 5 2 3. how many kilograms of cashews are in a 50 kg mixture?
There are 10 kg.
A mixture of nuts has a ratio of 5 parts peanuts to 3 part cashews how many ounces of cashews do you need to make a 24 ounce mixture?
If there are 5 parts of peanuts and 3 parts of cashews, there are 8 parts all together.If the total mixture is to weigh 24 ounces, each of the 8 parts will weigh 3 ounces.3 parts of cashews at 3 ounces each will be 9 ounces.5 parts of peanuts at 3 ounces each will be 15 ounces.9 ounces plus 15 ounces gives the correct total weight of 24 ounces
