Answer:
B. Beth's age is 18 years, and Sally's age is 42 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this question in a couple of different ways. First, you can use process of elimination. You know that Sally is older than Beth because she has to be 3 times older 6 years ago, so you can get rid of options C and D because they both show Beth as being older. Now you only have A and B, and you can use a different process. Now from just looking at it, you can tell that A actually already shows Sally as 3 times Beth's age, 15 * 3 = 45. If you go to B, you can go ahead and subtract 6 from 18 (Beth's age) which will give you 12, and then multiply that by 3 to get 36. Now if you take 42 (Sally's age) and subtract 6 from it as well, you will get 36. This means that is lines up. To simplify, you are subtracting 6 from both 18 and 42, and then you are multiplying the lower number by 3 to see if it gets to the bigger number.
Hope this helped ^-^
Jack must score 28 problems correct. To get a 92% he must answer 92% of the 30 questions right. which means 0.92*30=27.6, but it is not possible to score 0.6 of a problem right so you would round to 28, which guarantees Jack scores a 92 because if we round down, Jack would score less than a 92
