how many packages of hot dogs balance with the ketchup? ketchup+mustard=4 packages ketchup=mustard+2 packages?

You have two equations:\nK+M = 4\nK = M+2\n\nSubtitute "M+2" for K in the first and you get M + 2 + M = 4, or 2M = 2, or M = 1.  Since K = M + 2, K = 3.\n\nKetchup = 3 pkg\nMustard = 1 pkg

is there more than one answer?  it seems like it since with the information you get, you can only make two equations, but with three variables.  anyways, here's one possible answer (i must say it wasn't much of a brain teaser):\n\n56 mice, 41 cats, 3 dogs\n\n[[edit]]\n\nah yes, the guy below me got it.  never realized to make those two equations equal :)

At least two of them, or exactly 2 of them?\nOf couse, assuming they choose just one recipe for "supper"\n\nProb. that at least 2 of them choose the same recipe.\n\n1 chooses a recipe:\nprob 2 picks diff. recipe = 7/8\nprob 3 choose diff than 1 and 2 = 6/8\nprob 4 diff than all above = 5/8\nprob 5 diff than all above = 4/8\n\nprob they all choose diff = 7/8 x 6/8 x 5/8 x 4/8 = 0.205\nprob at least 2 choose same = 1 - .205 = 0.795 or about 80%\n\nprob exactly 2.\n\n1 chooses recipe\n2 chooses same = 1/8\n3 chooses diff = 7/8\n4 chooses another diff = 6/8\n5 chooses another diff = 5/8\n\nprob 1 and 2 choose same (rest diff) = 0.0513\nhowever 2 and 3 (or any pair) could choose same (rest diif)\nnumber of possible pairs from 5 is (5)(4)/2 = 10\nSo probability that exactly two are same = 10 x .0513 = 0.513 or about 51%. \n\nnote: prob exactly 2 (51%) is less than at least 2 (80%)

OMG!!  That's so funny!  Onion rings.  They were really good so I ate a lot of them - yikes!!! - if that ever happens again, I'm adding baking soda to my ketchup! lol

It isn't true you end up in an endless purchasing cycle - and it's easy to work out where the cycle ends via product of primes:\n\n10 = 5*2\n8 = 2*2*2\n\nOur hotdogs and buns converge at 5*2*2*2, or 40\n\nThat's 4 packs of hotdogs and 5 packs of buns.

Two totally different things. Ketchup is a condiment and tomato paste (which ketchup contains) is a thickener for sauces. I believe both are cholesterol free, but you'll have to read the labels. Ketchup might contain more sodium which can contribute to HBP

54 - if you count the jokers\n+12\n+190\n---------\n256\n----------\n\nor     52\n     + 13 - counting the number 12 as two seperate numbers\n     +190\n    ---------\n        2 5 5\n   ------------\n\nor 54+13+190= 257\n\nor Cards 52 + numbers on clock(counting each single digit) 15+ 190 = 257 with jokers in a pack of cards = 259\n\nso the answer is either 257, 259, 254, 256, 86 or 88\n\noooo! My head hurts!\n\n=kizzy=

I'm a sucker for a chicken frank plain. Now, they don't really serve these at the ballparks here in Chicago, but they should. But since they don't, second choice is any hot dog with those snappy casings. God, those are great. The snap of the skin, juice squirting out... oh, wait a minute, that sounds a little "Brokebacky".. But those are still the best hot dogs. And on top... nothing! Yup, I am one of those freaks who actually prefers my hot dogs plain. Oh, I'll occasionally put mustard, relish and onions on them. Or if I'm at a hotdog stand, I'll have the works. But at home or at the ballpark, I want them au natural. I want to taste the dog, the bun. Put mustard on and the dominant taste is ... mustard, especially at the ballpark where you usually don't get the choice of Grey Pupon, honey mustard or Guldens. Just that stuff that comes in the little packets that are hard as hell to open. Onions add a little zest to the dog, but who eats a hot dog with just onions. Nope, give me a nude hot dog on a bun and let the game add the flavor!

I'd like to tell you a couple of tricks for getting ABOUT the right answer, which is often all you need, for instance when you're buying something and want to guard against a major cashier's error.\nMultiplying two numbers: Try to simplify the problem. Say it's 15 cans of something at 39 cents a can. Well 39 is pretty close to 40, so you get 15*40=$6.00. Or if you want it exactly, 15*40=$6.00 but subtract 15 cents because you added it when you simplified. $6.00 - $0.15 = $5.85. That's a lot easier than mentally multiplying 15 by 39.\nOften there seems to be no way to simplify the problem. Like 34 * $0.57. Well see what happens if you decrease one a little and increase the other by the same percentage. Say we take 34 down to 30, that's a little more than 10% less. Then what's a little more than 10% of 57? About 7. So we add 7 to 57, and we have 30 * $.64 = $19.20. The actual answer is $19.38. Again, not too bad. Or a 3-digit number: Try $3.79 * 18. OK, lets put $3.79 up to $4.00, about a 5% increase. Then take about 5% off 18 and it's 17. $4.00 * 17 = $68.00, compared to the exact answer of $68.22. \nHow about when you have a bunch of different items in the supermarket cart and you want the approximate total? Just keep track of the dollars and remember the cents as simple fractions of a dollar. So if you have these items: $1.39, $3.75, $2.19, $7.63, you say 1 & 1/3 plus 3 & 3/4 is 5 & a little; plus 2 & a little is 7 & 1/2; plus 7 & 1/2 is 15. The actual total is $14.96. Again, not too bad, although it won't always be this close. I hope you can use these. It gets easier with practice.

problem number 1\nlet B = brian and M = maya. to find out when they catch each other we need to make the equation for brian's distance equal to maya's because that is when they will catch up:\n8 mph (x+1) = 10mph (x)   [remember x+1 is how long brian's been riding cuz he's been riding for one extra our than maya]\n8x+8 = 10x\n2x = 8\nx = 4\nso it will take Maya 4 hours to catch up\n\n2. x = hot dogs y = hamburger\n2x+1y = 3.99  (this shows 2 hot dogs multiplied by its price plus 1 hamburger multiplied by its price is 3.99)\n3x+3y = 6.57\n\nso since we need to find the cost of one hot dog (x) we need to make one of the two above equations into all x's.  so using the first one it would be y = 3.99-2x.  no using this equation, let's replace Y for the second equation.  \n3x+3y = 6.57\n3x+3(3.99-2x) = 6.57\n3x+11.97-6x=6.57\n11.97-3x=6.57\n11.97-6.57=3x\nx=1.80\nso one hot dog costs $1.80

pkg is package so depending on what size package you have as to how many teaspoons you have in it.

you multiply the number of teams by the number of games... 10 x 2 = 20 possible outcomes.\n\nThe different variations is the mutilples of all the options... for example, the number of sandwich combinations?&#92;Options, wheat, white or rye... (3)\nchedder or swiss cheese.... (2)\nham, turkey, or roast beef... (3)\n\nThere are 18 different sandwiches.  (3 x 2 x 3)

Look in the yellow pages for a restaurant supply company. They should be able to sell you boxes of just about anything - mustard, mayo, ketchup, relish, sauce, jam, honey, etc - in SSP. If not, they will probably know who can.

Crunchy please, with a side of ketchup and mayo. ( if you never tried that combination, it's not gross- it tastes very good. ) \n\nI'd like to order a cheeseburger, fried onions and pickles and a large Mellow Yellow with that...\n\nHow much do I owe you hun? :-)
