John will pay $8.68 for the combined cost of 1 pound of banana and 1 pound of cherries.

Let: b=cost of banana per pound and c=cost of cherries per pound

Equation 1: For 3 pounds of cherries and 2 pounds of bananas, John pays a total of $24.95.

3c + 2b =$24.95

Equation 2: The cost of bananas is $6.50 less than a pound of cherries.

b= c - $6.50

We can substitute the second equation into the first one to solve for the cost of cherries per pound.

3c + (2)(c-$6.50)= $24.95

3c + 2c -$13.00 = $24.95

5c = $24.95 + $13.00

c = $7.59

Substituting the value of c to the second equation to solve for b.

b= $7.59 - $6.50 = $1.09

The combined cost of 1 pound of banana and 1 pound of cherries is $1.09 + $7.59 or $8.68.

Answer:

1\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Volume of Water = 5\frac{4}{6}

Volume drunk by James =1\frac{1}{3}

Volume drunk by Simon =\frac{2}{3}

Volume drunk by Matthew = 1\frac{1}{2}

Volume drunk by Gilbert =\frac{5}{6}

Total Volume Drunk (i.e. The Sum) = 1\frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3} + 1\frac{1}{2} +\frac{5}{6}=\frac{13}{3}

Volume of water Left = Total Volume of Water-Total Volume Drunk

= 5\frac{4}{6}-\frac{13}{3} =\frac{4}{3}=1\frac{1}{3}
