Jon collects 2,578 ounces of honey from his beehives. He will put the honey in jars that hold 6 ounces each. Which expression is best to estimate the number of
jars Jon can fill with honey?
2,500 x 6
2,500 : 6
2,580 : 6
2,580 x 6

x=3y-6

step-by-step explanation:

answer: $53750

steps:

list the principal and interest after the n-th year:

n       principal   simple interest

1     12500     375

2     25000     750

3     37500     1125

4     50000     1500

sum: $50000     $3750
