P = ( 2 / 3 )s;
s = ( 3 / 5 )t ;
p + s + t = 280 ;
Then, p =( 2 / 3 )( 3 / 5 )t ;
p = ( 2 / 5 )t;
We solve the equation : ( 2 / 5 )t + ( 3 / 5 )t + t = 280 ;
( 2 / 5 )t + ( 3 / 5 )t + ( 5 / 5 )t = ( 1400 / 5 )t;
10t = 1400 ;
t = 1400 ÷ 10 ;
t = 140 postcards has Tim;
p = ( 2 / 5 ) × 140 = 56 postcards has Paul;
s = ( 3 / 5 ) × 140 = 84 postcards has Shawn ;

The Smiths spend 11% of their budget on entertainment. Their total budget this year is $1,000 more than last year, and this year
son4ous [18]

Answer:

$365,400

Step-by-step explanation:

If their budget is $5,060 this year and its $1,000 higher, than we can say that last year was $4060. Next, we look at the 11%. Their entertainment is 11% of the total budget. This means the rest of the budget is 89%. Multiply $4,060 by 89 which gets you $361,340. Add this with the $4060 (the 11% left) and it's $365,400. (I'm not sure if my math is 100% correct, but I know these are the proper steps.)
