The area of a certain desert desert one is five times the area of another desert desert 2 if the sum of their areas is 24, 000,

sweet-ann [11.9K]

4,000,000 and 20,000,000 miles²

let x be the area of one desert then 5x is the area of the other

sum = x + 5x = 24,000,000

6x = 24,000,000

divide both sides by 6

x = 4,000,000

one desert is 4,000,000 miles²

and the other is (5 × 4,000,000)= 20,000,000 miles²
