Answer:
6x3x2
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an arithmetic sequence with the common difference being 1
and if u have 1 cent on day 1 and 2 cents on day 2....then on day 40, u would have 40 cents....but we need the sum of all the days..
the sum of an arithmetic sequence can be found using the formula :
sn = n(a1 + an) / 2
n = number of terms = 40
a1 = first term = 1
an = last term = 40
now we sub
s(40) = 40(1 + 40) / 2
s(40) = 40(41)/2
s(40) = 1640/2
s(40) = 820.....820 cents = $ 8.20 <== the sum
Leslie has 2.50
elena has 2.75
5.25-.25 (for the amount that they don’t have equal) =5
5/2 (split equal between two people) =2.50
2.50+.25 (the amount elena has more than leslie) =2.75
