£750 is divided between Bridget, Caroline & Sarah so that Bridget gets twice as much as Caroline, and Caroline gets three ti

Answer: £225

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Sarah's amount be represented by x.

Since Caroline gets three times as much as Sarah, Caroline will get: 3x

Bridget gets twice as much as Caroline, therefore Bridget will get: 2 × 3x = 6x

Sarah = x

Caroline = 3x

Bridget = 6x

Total = x + 3x + 6x = 10x

Caroline's faction is 3/10. We then multiply the fraction by £750. This will be:

= 3/10 × £750

= 0.3 × £750

= £225

Caroline will get £225

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

x = 1/2 (1 +\- i sqrt(23))

Discussion:

x \3x - 2 =   (x/3)*x - 2   =  (x^2)/3 - 2     (*)

1 \3x - 4   =  (1/3)x - 4                               (**)

(*) = (**)   =>

(x^2)/3 -2 = (1/3)x - 4        => multiply both sides by 3

x^2 - 6 = x - 12                 => subtract x from both sides

x^2 -x -6 = -12                   => add 12 to both sides

x^2-x +6  = 0

Using the quadratic formula gives:

x = 1/2 (1 +\- i sqrt(23))

Thank you,

MrB
