Answer:
297.33 m
Step-by-step explanation:
54x+14= 43x+36
54x-43x= 36-14
11x = 22 /11
X =2
54*2+14 -= 122
Both the same
And the other are 180-122 = 58
Given:
Carol has 88cm of string and cuts it in the ratio 5 : 6.
To find:
How much longer is the longest piece compared to the shortest piece.
Solution:
Let the lengths of two pieces of string are 5x and 6x. Then,




Now, the lengths of pieces are:


And,


The difference between the longer piece and shorter piece is:

Therefore, the longer piece is 8 m longer than the shorter piece.
4( 40 - 30)
subtract 30 from 40 is expressed as 40 - 30
then multiply by 4 is expressed as 4 × (40 - 30) or 4(40 - 30) = 40
