The 2md number can be y. This makes the first number 1/5 of y

Your equation is y + 1/5y = 30
You can randomly plug in numbers and you get that the first number is 5. This means that the second number is 25

The circle graph shows the percentage of time Jacob spent on homework in each subject last week.Time Spent on Homework12.5%25%ar

We are given a circle graph that shows the time spent on homework last week.

Jacob spent a total of 16 hours doing homework.

The time spent on doing science homework is given by

$\begin{gathered} t_{\text{science}}=25\%\: of\: 16 \\ t_{\text{science}}=\frac{25}{100}\: \times\: 16=4\: \text{hours} \end{gathered}$

The time spent on doing band practice is given by

$\begin{gathered} t_{\text{band}}=12.5\%\: of\: 16 \\ t_{\text{science}}=\frac{12.5}{100}\: \times\: 16=2\: \text{hours} \end{gathered}$

The difference between the time spent on science homework and band practice is

$difference=t_{\text{science}}-t_{\text{band}}=4-2=2\: \text{hours}$

Therefore, Jacob spent 2 more hours on science homework than band practice.
