I have 1200 metres more to walk than when I have 20% of the walk remaining.
To find:

Let x be the distance from home to school.
I have already walked 20% of the way to school and i have 1200 metres more to walk than when I have 20% of the walk remaining.

Answer:
Policeman A = 56 tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
Policemen A + B = 70
If Policeman B hands out x no of tickets...
Then Policeman A hands out 4x no of tickets
meaning...
x + 4x = 70
5x = 70
x = 70/5
x = 14
Therefore Policeman A hands out..
4x = 4 × 14 = 56 tickets
The predicted time remaining has decreased by 30 years, so the second one would be the answer
The answer would be 7 becuase if rounded
Answer:
3:2
Step-by-step explanation:
to write a ratio, we can do ?:? in order. for example, 5 big shops to 10 small shops would be 5:10 (we are going to simplify it later) You always have to put the ratio numbers in order like they are in the question. In this case, small bones : big bones. We get 9:6. We can then divide both sides by a common factor, in this case 3. The end result is 3:2. Hope this helps!
