It takes21 minutes for 5 people to paint 7walls. How many minutes does it take 3people to paint 5 walls?

1 answer:

8 0

so 5 people work each one for 21 minutes, that means 21+21+21+21+21 minutes altogether, namely 105 minutes, it took that long for 7 walls, hmmmm how long for just one wall then? well, 105 ÷ 7, namely 15 minutes then, for just 1 wall.

now, if it takes 15 minutes of work to do one wall, what about 5 walls? well, that'd be 15*5 or 75 minutes.

so if we have 3 folks working, how much would each one work? well, 75 ÷ 3, namely 25 minutes, so each of them will work 25 minutes, namely 25+25+25 minutes, so in 25 minutes, they'll be done with 5 walls.

First answer get best marks

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

The three expressions are the first option, the third option, and the forth option

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't really know how to explain my math lol but I solved 5(1/3x+7)-3(1/2x-), and got x, and plugged in x to the equation. I got my answer, and plugged in x to the rest of the equations and the first one, third one, and fourth ones were the ones that had equal answers. You may want to check my math though because i am not the best but that is what I got.
