in May, each member of the Hiking Club hiked 21 miles. There are 37 members of the Hiking Club. How many miles is that combined? 5. Which statement correctly compares 2.89 and 28.9 ? A. 2.89 is 10 times the the value of 28.9 B. 2.89 is 100 times the value of 28.9 C. \( \quad 2.89 \) is \( 1 / 10 \) the value of 28.9 D. 2.89 is \( 1 / 100 \) the value of 28.9 5. The Baking Club Club baked 170 cupcakes. They want to give 44 cupcakes to the teachers, then split the rest equally between 9 containers. Which equation would show how many cupcakes would be in each container? A. \( 170+(44+9)=c \) B. \( (170+44) \times 9=c \) C. \( (170-44)+9=c \)

Below are the solutions for each part: 1. Hiking Club Miles:  Each of the 37 members hiked 21 miles. To find the total miles, multiply:   21 × 37 = 777 miles.  So, the Hiking Club members hiked a combined 777 miles. 2. Comparing 2.89 and 28.9:  Notice that 28.9 divided by 10 equals 2.89. This shows that 2.89 is 1/10 the value of 28.9. Therefore, the correct answer is:   C. 2.89 is 1/10 the value of 28.9 3. Cupcake Equation:  The Baking Club baked 170 cupcakes and set aside 44 for the teachers. The remaining cupcakes are:   170 – 44  These remaining cupcakes are then split equally among 9 containers, so the number in each container is:   (170 – 44) ÷ 9  This can be written as:   (170 – 44)/9 = c  However, none of the provided options (A, B, or C) matches this equation. The correct equation is (170 – 44)/9 = c. In summary: • Combined hiking miles: 777 miles. • Correct comparison: Option C. • Correct cupcake equation: (170 – 44)/9 = c (which was not among the choices given).
