Let the common multiple be x
3x : 2x
3x = 125
x = 125/3
So, B pays 2x = 2 × 125/3 = £250/3
1 gallon = 7 miles
2 gallon = 14 miles
3 gallon = 21 miles
4 gallon = 28 miles
Let x be the number of households with TV.
So .68x would be the number of households with cable.
If 8000 were added to the above number, it would be equal to 67,600,000.
Thus we have our equation:
.68x + 8000 = 67600000
Solving for x:
.68x = 67592000
x = 99,400,000
Answer:
3x + 2y = 16
x = 2 , y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that George bought x quarts at $3.00 per quart & y quarts at $2.00 per quart and he bought 7 quarts for $16.00
Considering the total cost
3x + 2y = 16
For the cost of each
x + y = 7
solving the 2 equations simultaneously be substitution
x = 7 - y
3(7 - y) + 2y = 16
21 - 3y + 2y = 16
-3y + 2y = 16 - 21
-y = - 5
Divide both sides by -1
y = 5
x = 7 -y
x = 7 - 5
= 2
