The total Number of Stamps that John has is; 798 Stamps

<h3>How to Solve Ratio Problems?</h3>

John, Mike and Tom shared a box of stamps in the ratio of 6:7:11.

This means that, the fraction of the whole each have are respectively;

John's Fraction = 6/(6 + 7 + 11) = 6/24

Mikes Fraction = 7/24

Tom's Fraction = 11/24

If the total number of stamps is x, and Tom had 532 more stamps than mike, then it means that;

11x/24 = 7x/24 + 532

11x/24 - 7x/24 = 532

x/6 = 532

x = 3192

Thus;

John has; (6/24) * 3192 = 798 Stamps

X + 9y = 8 x − 4y = –18

loris [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

$x + 9y = - 18 \\ 8x - 4y = - 18 \\ x = - 18 - 9y \\ 8( - 18 - 9y) - 4y = - 18 \\ - 144 - 72y - 4y = - 18 \\ - 76y = 126 \\ y = - 1.66 \\$

$x = - 18 - 9y \\ x = - 18 - 9( - 1.66) \\ x = - 18 + 14.94 \\ x = - 3.06$

on the football team, two out of every seven players are seniors. if the team has 84 players, how many are not seniors.

zaharov [31]

There are 60 players on football team that are not seniors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1:

Given

Total students = 84

Also given that

2 out of 7 are seniors

Which is 2/7

So in order to find the total number of seniors we will multiply the whole number of students to 2/7

$Senior\ students = \frac{2}{7} * 84\\= 24$

So there are 24 seniors on the football team.

Players that are not seniors = 84 - 24 = 60

There are 60 players who are not seniors.

Method 2:

We can divide the total number by 7, to get how many sets of 7 players will be there

= 84/7 = 12

Now,

Multiplying 12 with 2 will give us the number of seniors in football team.

12*2 = 24 seniors

So,

Not seniors =84-24 = 60
