Answer:
John- 375
Karen- 125
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer 1...
j =3k
2j + k = 875
substituting the first eqn into the 2nd
2(3k) + k = 875
6k+ k =875
7k = 875
k =875/7 =125
thus j = 3(125) =375
To solve this problem we can make a proportion.
6 5
-- = ---
10 x
to solve this proportion we can cross multiply and divide.
5 times 10 is 50. divided by 6 is 8.3
