Answer:

Ok, supongamos que en total hay N canicas.

1/5 de esas canicas se le dieron a Thales.

Entonces el resto ahora es:

1 - 1/5 = 4/5.

1/3 de esas canicas se le dieron a Arquimedes.

Entonces Arquimedes recibe:

(1/3)(4/5) = 4/15 de las canicas totales.

El resto, que eran 16, se le dieron a Pitagoras.

Ahora, las dos primeras entregas fueron:

1/5 + 4/15 = 3/15 + 4/15 = 7/15.

El resto seria:

1 - 7/15 = 8/15.

Y sabemos que el resto es igual a 16 canicas, entonces tenemos que:

(8/15)*N = 16.

De aca podemos calcular el numero total de canicas.

N = 16*(15/8) = 30

Esto quiere decir que inicialmente hay 30 canicas.

Thales recibe 30*(1/5) = 7 canicas.

Arquimedes recibe 30*(4/15) = 8 canicas.

Pitagoras recibe 16 canicas.

The ratio of the number of Sam's CDs to the number of Alice's CD's is 7 to 8. Sam has 84 CDS.
Alex

Answer:

180 CDs

Step-by-step explanation:

So if Sam has 84 CDs, and the ratio from Sam to Alice is 7:8, we can do 84/7=12 so each number is equal to 12. Then we add up 7 and 8 and get 15, so we do 15*12 and we get 180.
