Using a simple guess and check method, i started with the lowest common multiple of 3, and 27 (the total growth) and used 3. if you plug i the numbers, we will say a is the dwarf lemon tree, b is the semi-dwarf lemon tree, and c is the full lemon tree, you know 3times2 equals 6. if you triple 6 you get 18. so if A grew 3 inches , B had to have grown 6 inches, and C had to have grown 18 inches. add them all and you get 27. so the dwarf lemon tree grew 3 inches, semi dwarf grew 6 inches, the full size grew 18 inches.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Next bit of info that we have is 424 miles. Miles go on the numerator, and gallons, which we will call "x" will go on the denominator. It should be set up like this: 265/10 = 424/x Once you cross multiply you should get 265x=4240. Divide 265 by both sides and the answer is 16 gallons. Sorry if its wrong
