We are starting with 8+4+7+5=24 marbles. We're taking out 8, so we'll be left with 24-8=16 marbles. Think about those 16. If the probability of drawing a white one is 1 in 4, that means that 1/4 of the marbles are white. 1/4 of 16 is 16/4 = 4 marbles are white. Since we started with 8 white, and there are 4 left, we must have taken out 8-4 = 4 white marbles.

Gabrielle's age is three times Mikhail's age. The sum of their ages is 20. What is Mikhail's age?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Mikhail is 5 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent each member with a variable.

X= Gabrille

Y=Mikhail

X+Y=20 (sum of their ages is 20)

X=3y (Gabrille is 3 times Mikhails age)

Substitute 3Y into the first equation (simultaneous equation)

. 3y+y=20

. 4y=20 (divide both sides by 4)

y=5

To check your answer.

X+5=20

X=20-5

X=15

15 is 5 times 3.
