Hello!

To find how much chocolate Adi and Suresh receives, you need to convert the percentage to a decimal, then you multiply that decimal by the total number of chocolates, which is 20.

To convert percentages to decimals, divide the percentage by 100, and remove the percentage.

60% / 100 = 0.60

20% / 100 = 0.20

Then, we multiply 0.60 and 0.20 by 20.

0.60 x 20 = 12

0.40 x 20 = 8

Therefore, Adi gets 12 chocolates and Suresh gets 8 chocolates.

I'm working on the same thing right now and I'm using every resource in my hands right now to find a solution. I will edit this post when I have more. If you need any more help I have completed the previous activity and most of this one.

EDIT:

Ok so I checked with somebody who is pretty good with math and they said that 5x=5x would be right. Not too sure but that's what I'm putting.

I put EVERYTHING for this assignment in comments down below. Geez all of this for 5 freakin points.

Answer:

a = 9 / 7

step by step explanation:

9 / - a + 15 = 8

Determined the defined range

9 / ( - a ) + 15 = 8 , a ≠ 0

subtract 15 from each side

9 / - a + 15 - 15 = 8 - 15

calculate the difference

9 / - a = - 7

multiply both side of equation by - a

9 / - a × - a = - 7 × - a

9 = 7 a

divide each side by of equation by -7

9 / 7 = 7 a / 7

9 / 7 = a

swap the side of equation . ( optional )

a = 9 / 7

getting home from trick or treat celia and emma counted their candies. half of celias candies is equal to 2/3 of emmas candies.

blagie [28]

Candies with celias and emmas is 60 and 45 respectively.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Getting home from trick or treat celia and emma counted their candies. Half of celias candies is equal to 2/3 of emmas candies.

They had a total of 105 candies altogether.

We have to find how many candies did each of them have.

Let the number of candies with celias be n, then number of candies with emma will be 105 – n.

Now according to given condition.

$\begin{array}{l}{\frac{1}{2} \times \text { celias candies count }=\frac{2}{3} \times \text { emmas candies count }} \\\\ {\rightarrow \frac{1}{2} \times n=\frac{2}{3} \times(105-n)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 3 \times n=2 \times 2 \times(105-n)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 3 \times n=2 \times 2 \times(105-n)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 3 n=4(105-n)} \\\\ {\quad \rightarrow 3 n=420-4 n} \\\\ {\rightarrow 3 n=420-4 n} \\\\ {\rightarrow 3 n+4 n=420} \\\\ {\rightarrow 7 n=7 \times 60} \\\\ {\rightarrow n=60}\end{array}$

Hence, candies with celias and emmas is 60 and 45 respectively.
