Assume Alan's brother has x coins before Alan gave him 48 coins
x+48=1.4x (increased by 40%)
0.4x=48
x=120
120+140=260
answer is 260 coins
Answer:
Perimeter of a SQUARE
4 x s
4 x 2.3 = 9.2 cm
Hence the perimeter of the square is 9.2cm
Answer:
5/36
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the outcome that a event will occur
Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome
Since two sided dice are rolled, the total outcome will be expressed as;
Total outcome = 36
Since we are to find the probability that the sum is 8, the values that gives a sum of 8a re;
(2,6)(6,2), (5, 3), (3,5), (4, 4)
The expected outcome = 5
Probability = 5/36
Hence the probability that the sum is 8 is 5/36
Victor writes 20 poems
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that victor writes 10 more poems than Ann
Also given that Ann writes 10 poems
To find: number of poems written by Victor
<em><u>From given information, we can frame a equation as:</u></em>
number of poems written by Victor = 10 more poems than Ann
number of poems written by Victor = 10 + number of poems written by Ann
Substituting the given , number of poems written by Ann = 10 , we get,
number of poems written by Victor = 10 + 10 = 20
Thus victor writes 20 poems
