Answer:
Ashleys age is 28.
Step-by-step explanation:
When finding numbers that are consecutive, I like to divide the sum in this case, 100 by the number of people or things, in this case, the 4 siblings. The sum is 100 and there are 4 of them so we divide them first.
100÷4=25 so our answer must be around there. The question states that the ages must be even. So the even numbers in the range of lets say 20-30 are 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 and 30. Closest four numbers to 25 are 22, 24, 26 and 28. We must have two numbers below 25 and two numbers above 25. So we will keep 22,24,26 and 28. If you add them together, then you'll get 100! Since we are looking for Ashley's age which is the oldest, her age will be 28 as 28 is the highest number out the four numbers (22,24,26,28)
Good Luck and hope this helped! <33
Answer:
15.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
- Length of rectangle = 22 inches
- Perimeter = 75 inches
To calculate : Width of the rectangle.
★ Perimeter of rectangle = 2( l + w )
→ 75 = 2(22 + w)
→ 75 = 44 + 2w
→ 75 – 44 = 2w
→ 31 = 2w
→ 31 ÷ 2 = w
→ <u>1</u><u>5</u><u>.</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>inches</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>Width</u>
Therefore, width of the rectangle is 15.5 inches.
Answer:
The magazine that cost $15.24 for 6 issues cost more by $0.60/60 cents.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since $15.24 is 6 issues each and you need to even out the issues add $15.24+$15.24 then you would get $30.48, because its 15.24 each 6 add them both and it would be 12 issues. And the first issue $29.88 for 12 issues is only $29.88 while the other is $30.48 so the one with 6 issues/the second cost more than the first.
60 cents more because 29.88+60=30.48.
It is a simple problem where 120 centimeters need to be increased by 24%. The increased length can be found by:
120 * (24/100)
= 12 * (24/10)
= 288/10
= 28.8 centimeters
Then the total length of increase = 28.8 cm
Then the increased length = (120 + 28.8) cm
= 148.8 cm
So the length becomes 148.8 cm after it is increased by 24%.
