Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, put together the information we have. Total = 121. Emily has 40% more than Carl, and Carl has 60% more than Antony.

2. Next, set each person as a variable. Antony = x. Carl = 1.6x. Emily = 1.4 times 1.6x.

3. Next, form an equation using these variables.

    x + 1.6x + (1.4 x 1.6x) = 121

    x + 1.6x + 2.24x = 121

    4.84x = 121

    x = 25

4. Finally, plug in x to our previous variables in step #2 to find the number of stamps Emily and Carl have.

<u>Antony</u>: x = 25 stamps

<u>Carl:</u> 1.6x = 40 stamps

<u>Emily</u>: 1.4 times 1.6x = 56 stamps

By the way, is this for RSM? If so, I am working on that problem right now and I searched up the solution but couldn't find it, so I stumbled upon this. I hope this helped!

Which number line shows the correct placement of 20%, 1/3, and 2/3?
BigorU [14]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

20%

When we change percent into fraction we will divide the percent by 100

\frac{20}{100}=\frac{1}{5}

\frac{1}{3}

\frac{2}{3}

We have to find the line which shows the correct placement of given numbers.

Lcm(3,5)=15

\frac{1\times 3}{5\times 3}=\frac{3}{15}

\frac{1\times 5}{3\times 5}=\frac{5}{15}

\frac{2\times 5}{3\times 5}=\frac{10}{15}
