Answer:

170

Step-by-step explanation:

Ann, Ben, and Cindy were eating strawberries.

The ratio of the numbers of berries they ate is 5:5:7.

If Cindy ate 30 strawberries less than Ann and Ben together,

find:

what is the total number of strawberries the three of them ate?

solution:

add the ratios 5 + 5 + 7 = 17

since Cindy ate 30, less than Ann and Ben together so, the equation is

7x = 5x + 5x - 30

7x - 10x = -30

x = 30/3

x = 10

ann 5 x 10 = 50

ben 5 x 10 = 50

cindy 7 x 10 = 70  

total            = 170

An artists builds a sculpture out of metal and wood that weighs 14.9 kilograms.3/4 of this weight is metal,and the rest is wood.
Softa [21]

Given is a sculpture that is built up of metal and wood, and the weight of this sculpture is 14.9 kilograms.

It says that three-fourth of the total weight is metal and says to find the weight of wooden part.

We can find the weight of metal part and then subtract it from the total weight to calculate the answer.

Total weight = 14.9 kilograms.

Metal part = three-fourth of total weight = \frac{3}{4} *14.9=\frac{44.7}{4} =11.175 \;kilograms

Wooden part = 14.9 - 11.175 = 3.725 kilograms.

Hence, the wooden part is 3.725 kilograms.
