The fraction of the furniture sold that are tables is given by 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)
<h3>Equation</h3>
Let
- number of chairs = x
- Number of tables = y
Number of tables and chairs sold = 1/2(x + y)
= 1/2x + 1/2y
- Fraction of chairs sold = 1/2x
- Fraction of tables sold = 1/2y
Furniture remaining = 1/3(x + y)
Fraction of tables sold = 1/2y ÷ 1/3(x + y)
= 1/2y ÷ 1/3x + 1/3y
= 1/2y × 1 / (1/3x + 1/3y)
= 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)
Therefore, the fraction of the furniture sold that are tables is given by 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)

You turn 4 and 3/5 into 4 and 9/15 and you turn 2 and 1/3 into 2 and 5/15 and then you subtract to get 2 and 4/15.
That is true because 50 tens is 500 and 5 hundreds is 500 and 4 hundreds is 400 and 10 is 400
There are 52 weeks in one year. If we divide 159 by 52 we get 3.05. Therefore, there would be an average of 3-4 murders per week.
You could easily change the 2 1/2 to a 2.5 and do 2.5-6=-3.5
