Ratio in which Mr.Jeff divided his money between Jack and Jon = 4:2
Let us assume the common ration to be = x
The amount of money that Jon got = $1256
Then
2x = 1256
x = 1256/2
= 628
Then
The amount of money that Jon got = 4 * 628 dollars
= 2512 dollars
So the amount that Jack got is $2512. As Jack got the major or the bigger share of the money, so the answer is correct. I hope the procedure for solving the question is also easy for you to understand.
Use the ordered pairs to first find the slope then substitution into y=mx+b to find b
That answer your looking for is 80
C. $693.33. Just round. It helps. Round 2,080 to 2,100. Then whats 30% of 2,100? It's easy just think of 21 divided by 3, which equals 7. So, 700 and the closest answers to that is $693.33. That's just the easy way instead of doing the math out. And it is also common sense that B or D wouldn't be it. So your left with C or A. :)
If this is a true or false question, then the answer is true. This is because we technically have 365.2425 days in a year and if you add an extra day every 4 years, you get an average of 365.25. It is A LOT of math, but even though there was an extra day in 1896 and 1904, there was no leap year in 1900 because of the 400 multiple rule.
