Find the common denominator of 3 and 6. which is 6. now just subtact 2 and 1 which is 1. ur answer is 1/6
6 *20 = 120
8 *60 = 480
120 + 480 = 600 pounds total
-- You have two angles.
-- They're complementary . . . they add up to 90 degrees.
-- One is 4 times as big as the other one.
___________________________________________
-- The smaller angle has 1 share of the 90 degrees.
-- The bigger angle has 4 shares of the 90 degrees.
-- (The smaller one is 1/4 the size of the bigger one.
The bigger one is 4 times the size of the smaller one.)
-- When you add them together, you get 5 shares, totaling 90 degrees.
-- What's the size of each share ? It's 90/5 = 18 degrees.
-- The smaller angle gets one share . . . 18 degrees.
-- The bigger angle gets 4 shares. (4 x 18) = 72 degrees.

Check:
-- Is the small one 1/4 the size of the big one ? 18/72 = 1/4 Yes.
-- Are they complementary ? Do they add up to 90 degrees ?
18 + 72 = 90 Yes.
yay !
