3 0
5/3 = 315/x
5*x = 5x
3*315 = 945
5x = 945
5x/5 = 945/5
x= 945/5
x=189

Final answer: The riders are 189

Shelly is 3 years older than Michele. Four years ago the sum of their age was 67. Find the age of each person.
lawyer [7]

total of ages now is 67 + 4 + 4 = 75

S=shelly

M= Michelle

Michelle is 3 yrs younger than Shelly so use S-3

S +M = 75

replace M with S-3 to get:

S +S-3=75

2S=78

s=39

So shelly is 39

Michelle is 3 years younger = 39-3 = 36

A person is supposed to drink half a gallon of water every day.abby drank 15 small cups today if the capacity of the cup is 3.5
Yuki888 [10]

He needs to drink 3 cups MORE to meet his daily requirement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, as given in the question:

The total need for water = half a gallon = 0.5 gallon

1 gallon  = 128 oz

So, 0.5 gallon = 128/2  = 64 oz

Now, the capacity of 1 cup = 3.5 oz

The number of cups already drank by the person = 15 cups

So, the total amount of water already taken by him

= 15 cups x Capacity of 1 cup

= 15 x (3.5 oz)  = 52.5 oz

So, the amount of water left to be drink by him

= Total Need - Already covered

= 64 oz - 52 . 5 oz  =  11.5 oz

Now, as 1 cup = 3.5 oz

So, 11.5 oz  has ( \frac{11.5}{3.5} )cups  = 3.28 cup≈ 3 cups

Hence, he needs to drink 3 cups MORE to meet his daily requirement.
