Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can split the coins into 3 groups, each of them has 3 coins. Weigh group 1 vs group 2, if one is lighter, that group has the fake coin. If both groups weigh the same, then group 3 has the fake coin.
Continue to split the group that has the fake coin into 3 groups, each group has 1 coin. Now apply the same procedure and we can identify the fake coin.
Total of scale usage is 2
b) if you have
coins then you can apply the same approach and find the fake coin with just n steps. By splitting up to 3 groups each step, after each step you should be able to narrow down your suspected coin by 3 times.
Step 1: you narrow down to group of
coins
Step 2: you narrow down to group of
coins
Step 3: you narrow down to group of
coins
...
Step n: Step 1: you narrow down to group of
coin
Answer:
They spent $15.
Step-by-step explanation:
It's given that Jane bought x cookies, so 3x.
John spent $1 on each of the x cookies he got, and also an extra $10, so x+10.
3x=x+10
2x=10
x=5
So they got 5 cookies each.
5 cookies x $3= $15 (check with $5(1)+$10= $5+$10= $15 )
45÷50=90%
