We know that
<span>Joey and Rita paint a room in 8 hours
so
100%----------> 8 hours
X%----------> 1 hour
x=100/8-----> 12.5%
that means
</span>Joey and Rita paint 12.5% of a room in 1 hour
Billy paint a room in 12 hours
so
100%----------> 12 hours
X %------------> 1 hour
x=100/12----> x=8.33 %
that means
Billy paint 8.33% of a room in 1 hour
i<span>f all three work together
then
All three paint (12.5%+8.33%) in 1 hour
20.83%------------> 1 hour
100%------------> x
x=100/20.83-----> x=4.8 hours
the answer is
4.8 hours</span>
The total amount he should pay is $69.6
20% of 58 is 11.6
11.6+58=69.6
Answer:
5/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the denominator be k and thus numerator be 4 less than k or k - 4.
Fraction = (k - 4)/k
If 5 is added to both:
=> (k-4 + 5)/(k + 5) = 5/7
=> 7(k + 1) = 5(k + 5)
=> 7k + 7 = 5k + 25
=> 2k = 18
=> k = 9
Thus,
Fraction is (k-4)/k = (9-4)/9 = 5/9
Answer:
x=11
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+3(5x-6)= 180
Distribute 3 to 5x and -6
3x+15x-18=180
Combine like terms
18x-18=180
Add 18 to both side
18x=198
Divide 18 on both side
x=11
