Let's say the total number of students in Mrs. Garcia's class is represented by T.
Given that 2/3 of the class, or 8 students, own a pet, we can set up the equation:
2/3 * T = 8
To solve for T, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3/2:
(2/3 * T) * (3/2) = 8 * (3/2)
T = 24/2 = 12
Therefore, the total number of students in Mrs. Garcia's class is 12.

Julio is making lemonade to be sold at a fair he bought five bags of lemons for $19.75 complete the equation that models the cost c of each bag of lemons
Let's say the cost of each bag of lemons is represented by C.
Given that Julio bought five bags of lemons for $19.75, we can set up the equation:
C * 5 = $19.75
To solve for C, we can divide both sides of the equation by 5:
(C * 5)/5 = $19.75/5
C = $3.95
Therefore, the cost of each bag of lemons is $3.95.
