First work out the 'multiplier'

3 + 5 + 9 = 17 so Multiplier = 1/17

$558 is the largest share  and that equals  9 * 1/17  of x  where x is the total amount of money

9x / 17 = 558

x = (558 * 17) / 9  =   $1054

So the smallest share  = 3 /17  *  1054 =  $186  Answer

Which of the following mixed numberd is represented by the letter A in number line shown?​
pentagon [3]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is divided into 9 parts between 1 and 2

A is situated 6 parts of the way between 1 and 2, that is

\frac{6}{9} = \frac{2}{3} ← cancelling by 3

Hence

A = 1 + \frac{2}{3} = 1 \frac{2}{3} → A

1.) So 1/5 of a relay, or r, is 3/4 of a mile.
1/5r = 3/4
Multiply 5 on both sides of the equation.

r = 15/4

The relay was 15/4 of a mile or 3 3/4 of a mile.

2.) No, it is not because the sum of the digits are not divisible by 3.

Hope this helps! :)
