Three friends Kofi,Yaw and Musa are in partnership business in which Kofi and Yaw contributed 5/9 and 2/15 of the cost of 14000.

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

(a) $Total = 45000$

(b) Yaw, Musa and Kofi

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Kofi =5/9$

$Yaw = 2/15$

$Musa = 14000$

Solving (a): The cost of the business

First, we solve for the fraction of Musa

$Musa + Kofi + Yaw = 1$

$Musa = 1 - (Kofi + Yaw )$

$Musa = 1 - (5/9 + 2/15)$

$Musa = 1 - (\frac{25+6}{45})$

$Musa = 1 - \frac{31}{45}$

$Musa = \frac{45 - 31}{45}$

$Musa = \frac{14}{45}$

So, we have:

$\frac{14}{45} * Total = 14000$

Make Total the subject

$Total = 14000 * \frac{45}{14}$

$Total = 1000 * 45$

$Total = 45000$

Solving (b): Partners in ascending order

First, represent the fractions as decimals

$Kofi =5/9$ $= 0.5556$

$Yaw = 2/15$ $= 0.1333$

$Musa = \frac{14}{45}$ $= 0.3111$

From the conversion above, the least is 0.1333 (Yaw), then 0.3111 (Musa), then 0.5556 (Kofi).

<em>So, the order is: Yaw, Musa and Kofi</em>

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The number of people in a waiting line is a quantitative data as we can count them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The value of quantitative data can be determined by counting or measuring something.

Now consider the provided options.

The player’s number on a baseball uniform, the serial number on a one-dollar bill and the part number of an inventory item is not a quantitative data because we can't measure them.

The number of people in a waiting line is a quantitative data as we can count them.
