Lets consider SAM's age is 'x' and Hank's age is 'y'
So as per given data Sam's age is 5/3 times of Hank's age
so x = 5/3 * y
3x = 5y --> equation 1
and also sum of their ages is 24
so, x + y = 24
we need to find Hank's age (y)
so x = 24 - y
Now replace x value in equation 1
3(24-y) = 5y
72-3y = 5y
72 = 3y+5y
8y= 72
y= 72/8
y = 9 years.
So the Hank's age is 9 years
.
Consecutive even integers are 2 apart
they are
x and x+2
sum is 110
x+x+2=110
2x+2=110
minsu 2 both sides
2x=108
divide both sidedse by 2
x=54
x+2=56
the numbers are 54 and 56
Answer:
x = 16, y = 22: So C.
Step-by-step explanation:
60 miles in total.
to find percentages, you divide the part by the whole, so 33/60 = .55, which you then move the decimal over two places and read as a percentage
