Answer 1

The difference between Palomas and Antons' points on the English test is of 14 points.

What is Ratio ?

When two numbers can be written in the form as p:q , they are said to be in Ratio.

It is given that

The ratio of Michaels point to Paloma point is 12 :11

The ratio of Michaels point to Anton's Point is 4:3

Let Paloma's point be x

then Michaels point will be 12x/11

and Anton's points will be

(12x/11 ) / Anton's points = 4 /3

Anton's points = 9x/11

It is given that the sum of the points of the three students is 224

so

x + (12x/11)+ (9x/11) = 224

32x /11 = 224

x = 77

Paloma's points = 77

Anton's Points = 9x/11 = 63

The difference between Palomas and Antons' points on the English test

=77 -63

= 14 points.
