Answer:

Molly gets 21, Paige gets 14 and Demi gets 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Total = 42

Ratio = 3:2:1

Total Parts = 3+2+1 = 6

<u><em>Molly:</em></u>

=> \frac{3}{6}*42

=> 3*7

=> 21 sweets

<u><em>Paige:</em></u>

=> \frac{2}{6}*42

=> 2*7

=> 14 sweets

<u><em>Demi:</em></u>

=> \frac{1}{6}*42

=> 7 sweets

Add the ratios: 3+2+1= 6

Divide total treats by total ratio:

42/6 = 7

Now multiply each separate ratio by that:

Molly = 3x7 = 21

Paige = 2x7 = 14

Demi = 1x7 = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, we want to find the number of weeks (w) that Kaitlyn must save $6 in order to have a total of $60.

... $6 × w = $60

Divide by $6 to get ...

... w = $60/$6 = 10

Kaitlyn must save for 10 weeks (if she starts with a balance of 0).

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

The problem reads like we came in somewhere in the middle of it. We don't know what other steps you've been asked to perform, or any of the details of the problem you're asked to solve. We don't have Kaitllyn's initial balance, for example, which is essential to determining how long she must save. (If Kaitlyn's initial balance is $33, for example, she must only save for 4.5 weeks.)
