Answer:

the sum invested in Fund b is $6000

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be easily solved using allegation Method.

Profit on fund A is 6% whereas Profit on fund B is 2%.

Fund A + Fund B= $24000

Overall profit to be gained = 5%

                             6%            2%

                                      5%

                             3       :          1

therefore the fund was distributed in the ratio 3:1

⇒4 units= 24000

⇒ 1 unit = $6000

therefore the fund A = 3×6000=$ 18000

and the fund B= 1×6000= $6000

The last time he checked, Matthew was 40 inches tall. Matthew just measured himself again and found out that he is 10% taller no

44 inches.

All you have to do is find out what 10% of 40 is then add it back to 40. In the case of finding 10% of something you just “chop” of the back number (or move the decimal place forward) so 10% of 40 is 4. The. 40+4=44.

You can also multiply fractions to find the percent of a number but that is not necessary in this case.

Lerok [7]
Turning clockwise means the number increase, and counterclockwise means the number decreases

Therefore your answer is 37 + (3*1/2)-(3*1/4)

= 37.75

Hope this helped :)
