Fraction has fraction in both
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If A, B, and C are in the ratio of 2:3:5 and they are each getting some amount of money in that ratio, then to find the total amount of money they split is found in Ax + Bx + Cx and we need to solve for x. What we are told is that the smallest share = 210 and obviously A is the smallest share. Therefore,
2x = 210 and x = 105.
The total sum = 210 + 3(105) + 5(105) so
Total sum = 210 + 315 + 525
Total sum = 1050 and
C's share is 525 and
B's share is 315
Answer:
a c
Step-by-step explanation:
x=2y-2
x=y+3
Substitute the second equation into the first
y+3=2y-2
solve for y
y=5
plug into original
x=y+3=5+3=8 or x=2(5)-2=8
