Answer:

x = 325 and y = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y.

y = \frac{1}{5} x

x - y = 260

Now substituting value of y in the second equation

x - \frac{1}{5} x = 260\\

4x = 1300

x = 325

y = 65

A culture of 2.4X10^11 bacteria is in a Petri dish A. A culture of 8X10^9 bacteria is in Petri dish B. How many times greater is
Citrus2011 [14]

A culture of 2.4 × 10^11 bacteria is in a Petri dish A

A culture of 8 × 10^9 bacteria is in Petri dish B

Number of times number of bacteria in Petri dish A is greater than that number in Petri dish B:

\frac{Number of bacteria in Petri dish A}{Number of bacteria in Petri dish B} = \frac{2.4 * 10^11}{8 * 10^9}

Divide 2.4 by 8 to give 0.3

Divide 10^11 by 10^9 to give 10^(11-9) = 10^2

The answer is 0.3 × 10²
