It is highly important to go through all the details that are given in the question. Based on all the data provided in the question, the answer can easily be determined. Now let us focus on the problem in hand.
Cost of 364 gram box of cereal = 97 cents
Then

                                               = 0.27 cents
hen
The cost of 227 gram box of cereal = (0.27 * 227) cents
                                                         = 73.815 cents
                                                         = 73.82 cents
So the price of a 227 gram box of cereal will cost 73.82 cents.

Best answer that i found on yahoo ok   set :   x= length of 2nd piece in cm  x- 3= length of 1st piece in cm  x-4= length of 3rd piece in cm  then since you know they all came from the 20 cm ribbon you add them together and set them equal to 20x+ x-3 +x-4 = 20  3x - 7= 20  3x= 27  x= 9  the shortest piece is the third piece which is x- 4  x-4  9-4 = 5  the length of the smallest piece is 5 cm.  the other lengths are  9 cm  6 cm
