week1 = x

week2 = x+5

week3 = 2(x+5)

x + (x+5) + 2(x+5) = 431

x + x + 5 + 2x + 10 = 431

4x + 15 = 431

4x = 431 - 15

4x = 416

x = 104


week1 = x = 104  boxes

week2 = x+5 = 104+5 = 109  boxes

week3 = 2(x+5) = 2(104+5) = 2*109 = 218  boxes

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

a= 18 girls in the class, b= 20 boys and 15 girls, 12 oranges better price.

Step-by-step explanation:

for question a, there are 18 girls in the class, this is how i worked it out:

the ratio of boys to girls is 4:3.

there are 24 boys.

24 is 6 times more than 4.

if boys are 6 times more than the original ratio, we also have to times the amount of girls by 6.

6x3= 18.

for question b i got 20 boys and 15 girls, this is how i did it.

there are 35 students in total.

4:3= boys to girls.

4+3=7

7 goes into 35 five times.

ratio of boys to girls is 4:3 so 5x4 for boys = 20 and 3x5 for girls = 15.

answer= 20 boys and 15 girls.

12 oranges is a better deal, this is how i worked it out.

it is 60 for 12 oranges.

it is 48 for 8 oranges.

12x5= 60 , 8x6=48.

you only have to times 12 by 5 to get it to the price but you have to times 8 by 6 to get it to the price, proving that 12 oranges for 60 is a better deal.
