Perimeter is the sum of all sides of a polygon. For this case, the perimeter is expressed as: P=a+b+c. It has been said that the longest side is twice that of the shortest side. Let's assume that a is the longest side and b is the shortest side. So, the equation for the shortest side is,
6.2 = 2c
c = 3.1
14.5 = 6.2 + 3.1 + b
14.5 = 9.3 +b
Answer: p800,000
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 to wife
1/3 to eldest son, and
<u>Rest(x)</u> to 5 youngest children
(1/2) + (1/3) + x = 1 [The sum of the shares will equal 1 estate]
(3/6) + (2/6) + x = 1
(5/6) + x = 1
x = (1/6); to be divided among the 5 youngest children
We find that each young child receives p60,000. That group of five received 5*(60,000) = p300,000, which represents (1/6) of the total estate (Estate).
We can write: (1/6)*(Estate) = p300,000
Estate = p1,800,000
The wife hauled in 1/2 of this, so she received p800,000.
