Tapiwa raked 5% more leaves than Adam raked. Together, they raked 697 liters of leaves. How many liters of leaves did Adam rake?

Mathematics

Assume that the number of leaves raked by Adam is x.
Tapiwa raked 5% more leaves than Adam, this means that:
Leaves raked by Tapiwa = x + 0.05x = 1.05x liters
We are given that the total number of raked leaves is 697 liters.
This means that:
Total raked = raked by Adam + raked by Tapiwa
697 = x + 1.05x
697 = 2.05x
x = 697 / 2.05 
x = 340
Based on the above calculations:
Adam raked 340 liters of leaves
Tapiwa raked 1.05(340) = 357 liters of leaves

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the tank holds 2500 liters and there are already 750 liters in there, he only needs to buy 1750 liters.

If he is saving 6%, he is still spending 94%, so

.94(58.4) = 54.896 (what he'll be paying per liter after the 6% comes off, then

54.896(1750) = $96,068
