I gave my brother 1/5 of my candy, 1/4 to my friend and had 11 pieces left over. How many pieces did I give my brother?

AnnyKZ [126]

x = total number of candies

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{my brother}}{\cfrac{1}{5}x}+\stackrel{\textit{my friend}}{\cfrac{1}{4}x}+11~~=~~\stackrel{\textit{total}}{x} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{20}}{20\left( \cfrac{x}{5}+\cfrac{x}{4}+11 \right)=20(x)}\implies 4x+5x+220=20x\implies 9x+220=20x \\\\\\ 220=11x\implies \cfrac{220}{11}=x\implies 20=x~\hspace{10em}\stackrel{\textit{to my brother}}{\cfrac{20}{5}\implies 4}$

Find the unknown measure of the rectangle 9m perimeter=42 meters

Harman [31]

12m; if one side is 9m then that means 42 - 9 - 9 would yield the size of the two remaining sides together. 42-18=24 24 divided between the two sides left means each remaining side had to be 12m

Ben has 4 more than twice as many cd's as jake. if they have a total of 31 cd's, home cd's does jake have ?

Anvisha [2.4K]

These are the equations given:
31=B+J
B=2J+4

So you substitute B=2J+4 into 31=B+J

31=2J+4+J

Solve

31-4=3J+4-4
27=3J
27/3=3J/3
9=J

Jake has 9 cd's.
