So, Seth has 18 more sweets than Frank, yet theres only 3 number difference in the ratio, 4:5:7   (4:5) 3 number difference, 18/3= 6

add the ratios = 4+5+7= 16
1 number = 6 so 
4x6= 24
5x6=30
7x6=42

Frank gets 24 sweets
Mary gets 30 sweets
Seth gets 42 sweets

The total number of sweets they shared is 24+30+42= 96
The share 96 sweets altogether. 

The check your answer; do 42-24= 18

Therefore, now we know that the difference between Seth and Frank's amount of sweets is 18.

Therefore, this is correct.

Each number in the ratio 4:5:7 is worth 6 sweets. add 4,5, and 7 to get 16 then multiply it by 6 to get 96 sweets.

Vicky ran 5⁄14 of a mile and walked 1⁄7 of a mile. how much further did vicky run than walk?
raketka [301]
To solve, we need to subtract from these two fractions. In order to do this, we will change one of them to have the same denominator as the other.

We have 5/14 and 1/7
Let us change 1/7

Multiply 2/2 (a form of 1 so it does not change the value of the fraction)

2/2 • 1/7 = 2/14

Now subtract from 5/14
5/14 - 2/14 = 3/14

ANSWER: Vicky ran 3/14 of a mile more
