Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve. Technically, there are two methods. You can first multiply, or first divide.

Essentially the question is:

(5 * 2)/5

2 * (5/5)

Solve. Remember to follow PEMDAS. First solve the parenthesis, then simplify:

(5 * 2)/5 = (10)/5 = 2

2 * (5/5) = 2 * 1 = 2

2 is your answer.

Combs and Stratton invested $140,000 and $360,000, respectively, in a partnership. They agreed to share net income in proportion

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Comb's share will be = $12,180

Stratton's share will be = $31,320

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Comb's investment in the partnership = $140,000

Stratton's investment in the partnership = $360,000

The net income is shared in proportions of their investment.

Net income last year = $43,500

To find the share of each partner of the net income.

Solution:

Ratio of the investments of Comb to Stratton = $\frac{140,000}{360,000}$ $= \frac{14}{36}=\frac{7}{18}$ (Simplest ratio)

Thus, the investments must be shared in the ratio of 7 : 18

Let Comb's share in dollars be = $7x$

Then, Stratton's share in dollars = $18x$

Total net income can be given as = $7x+18x=25x$

Net income = $43,500

So, we have:

$25x=43,500$

Dividing both sides by 25.

$\frac{25x}{25}=\frac{43,500}{25}$

∴ $x=1740$

So, Comb's share will be = $7\times 1740 = \$12,180$

Stratton's share will be = $18\times 1740 = \$31,320$

Ross ate 3/10 of a pumpkins pie. Brady ate 6/10 of asane pie. How much of the pie did Ross and Brady eat altogether?

Anton [14]

Hi there!

Since the denominators are the same in both fractions, this makes solving the problem super easy! All we need to do is to add the numbers across the fractions (numerator + numerator). We do not add the denominators together because they are the same.

WORK:
3/10 + 6/10 = 9/10

ANSWER:
Ross and Brady ate 9/10 of the pie together.

Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
