Solve
Is there soups are to be a picture
Total people x,
then, 3.5x + 5.5x + 6 = 51
simplify, 9x +6 = 51
subtract 6 on both sides, 9x= 45
divide by 9 on both sides, x= 5
therefore, total 5 people in the family.
Answer: 17/60
Step-by-step explanation:
Change all of the fractions to have a common denominator:
LCM of 10, 12, 15 is 60
You get 12/60, 25/60, and 54/60.
54/60 is what he had at the start, and so you can just subtract what he gave away
54/60-12/60=42/60
42/60-25/60=17/60
17 is a prime number so you cannot simplify the fraction
