If 40% or .4 of her savings is $85 then we can write the equation .4s=$85 (s being the original amount in savings)
Divide both sides by .4 to get s= $212.50 as the original amount that she had
K=y•x
Inverse means 1/variable
y=k•1/x
y=k/x
k=y•x
x=5
y=2.4
k=2.4 • 5
k=12
Answer is:
y=12/x
Good luck.
Lt1 = 45; Lt2 = 120; Lt3 = 75
:
Prime factor each:
45: 3,3,5,
120: 2,2,2,3,5
75: 3,5,5
:
Lcm of all three: 2,2,2,3,3,5,5 Multiply this: 1800 secs they will all Flash
:
1800/60 = 30 min: At 9:05Pm this should occur
.25x+.10y=$10
.25 because that is the value of the quarter, times x the number or quarters you have and .10 because that is the value of the dime times y, the number of dimes you have.
