Answer: Jeremy score 18 points; Donovan score 6 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jeremy's points be a

Let Donovan's point be b

Let Kolby point be c

Jeremy scored triple the number of points as Donovan. This is:

a = 3b

Kolby scored double the number of points as Donovan. This will be:

c = 2b

The the three boys scored 36 points. This will be:

a + b + c = 36

Since a = 3b and c = 2b

Plug the equations for a and c into the equation. This will be:

a + b + c = 36

3b + b + 2b = 36

6b = 36

b = 36/6

b = 6

Donovan has 6 points

Jeremy will have:

a = 3b

a = 3 × 6

a = 18

Jeremy has 18 points.

Kolby will have:

c = 2b

c = 2 × 6

c = 12

Kolby will have 12 points.

Problem #2
marta [7]

Fractions can be converted to decimals and vice versa.

<em>The decimal equivalent  of the fraction of months with 31 days is 0.583</em>

Given:

<em />Total = 12<em> --- months in a year</em>

<em />Months = 7<em> --- months with 31 days</em>

<em />

The fraction (n) of months with 31 days is:

n = \frac{Months}{Total}

So, we have:

n = \frac{7}{12}

The decimal equivalent is:

n = 0.583

Hence, (c) is correct.
