Answer:
part A: D Marina
part B: A Anna
Step-by-step explanation:
If you're not that familiar with these fractions and their equivalents, you can always compare them using their least common denominator: 24.
Joseph: 1/3 = 8/24
Anna: 1/6 = 4/24
Elvin: 3/12 = 6/24
Theo: 1/4 = 6/24
Marina: 5/8 = 15/24
Then the ordering from least-to-greatest is ...
Anna, {Elvin, Theo}, Joseph, Marina
<u>Part A</u>
Marina reached the greatest fraction of the goal.
<u>Part B</u>
Anna reached the least fraction of the goal.
(27x + 16*8)/x+8 = 19
(27x +128) /x+8 = 19
multiply both sides by x+8
27x+128 = 19x +152
subtract 19x from both side:
8x +128 = 152
subtract 128 from both side:
8x = 24
divide both sides by 8
x = 24 /8
x = 3 pounds
You have to make a proportion:
12+x/8=8/x
Then cross multiply to solve for x
