Please see below solution:
Let x = number of books that Bryan reads2x for amanda = Amanda 3x - 4 for Colin Amanda = 5/8(Bryan + Colin)2x = 5/8(x+3x-4)2x = 5/8(4x-4)
[16x = 5(4x-4)]816x = 20x - 20Subtract 20x from each side-4x =-20-4x/-4= -20/-4 divide -4 to eliminate the -4 in -4xx = 5
Therefore:
Bryan reads 5 books a month.
Since Amanda reads twice as many books a Bryan read so Amanda 10 books a month.
And Colin 11 books a month. 3(5) - 4 = 11

Answer: 60 muffins</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
x = some positive whole number
2x = amount Helen baked initially
5x = amount Rebecca baked initially
Notice that the ratio 2x:5x reduces to 2:5 after dividing both parts by x.
So (2x)/(5x) = 2/5
Helen then bakes another 12 muffins, bumping the 2x up to 2x+12. The ratio is now 1:2, which means,
(amount Helen bakes)/(amount Rebecca bakes) = 1/2
(2x+12)/(5x) = 1/2
2(2x+12) = 5x*1 .... cross multiply
4x+24 = 5x
24 = 5x-4x
24 = x
x = 24
From here, we then can say,
- Helen = 2x+12 = 2*24+12 = 48+12 = 60
- Rebecca = 5x = 5*24 = 120
Helen baked 60 muffins and Rebecca baked 120 muffins. We see that 60:120 reduces to 1:2 after dividing both parts by the GCF 60.
Furthermore, note how
- 2x = 2*24 = 48
- 5x = 5*24 = 120
- 48:120 reduces to 2:5 after dividing both parts by 24
This helps confirm we have the correct answer.
1 m ------------- 0,001 K
5 m -------------- x
x = 5 . 0,001
x = 0,005 kilometers
hope this helps!.
