Answer:

12 people

Step-by-step explanation:

On the morning of the 3rd day, there are 4 working days (of the 6 days) left for 12-person crew, or 4*12 = 48 man.days

The team completed the remaining job in 2 days. This means 48 / 2 = 24 people helped complete the task.

So the number of new workers who joined the crew is

24 - 12 = 12 people

Helga [31]

Answer: 250 hamburgers

Step-by-step explanation: x= hamburgers

If there are 72 more cheeseburgers than hamburgers there are:

x+72

The number of cheeseburgers and hamburgers=572 so:

572= x+72+x

Then solve

572=x+72+x

572=2x+72

-72 -72

———————

500=2x

500/2=2x/2

250=x

2 and 1/4 + 2 and 1/5 + 3 and 5/8

= 2 \frac{1}{4}  + 2 \frac{1}{5}  + 3 \frac{1}{8}  \\  \\  =  \frac{2 \times 4 + 1}{4}  +  \frac{2 \times 5 + 1}{5}  +  \frac{3 \times 8 + 1}{8}  \\  \\  =  \frac{8 + 1}{4}  +  \frac{10 + 1}{5}  +  \frac{24 + 1}{8}  \\  \\  =  \frac{9}{4}  +  \frac{11}{5}  +  \frac{25}{8}  \\\\(lcm \: of \: 4, \: 5, \: 8 \:  = 40)  \\  \\ = \frac{9 \times 10}{4 \times 10}  +  \frac{11 \times 8}{5  \times 8}  +  \frac{25 \times 5}{8 \times 5}  \\  \\   = \frac{90}{40}  +  \frac{88}{40}  +  \frac{125}{40}  \\  \\  =  \frac{90 + 88 + 125}{40}  \\  \\  =  \frac{303}{40}  \\  \\  = 7 \frac{23}{40}
