For example: if the word problem were simply "4 divided by 2", the fraction would be a 4 with a line underneath and the 2 underneath that.
I hope I made this possible to understand... let me know if you were referring to something else!
Answer:
ghs 20,000
Step-by-step explanation:
If Boadu and ansah formed a company and agreed that their annual profit will be shared in the ratio of 4:5 respectively, the total ratio will be 4 + 5 = 9
Let Boadu share be x
Let ansah share be y
If at the end of the year ansah received ghs5,000 more than Boadu, then;
y = 5000 + x
Boadu share = 4/9 * (x+y)
x+y is the total amount shared
x = 4/9 * (x+y)
Substitute y = 5000 + x
9x = 4(x+y)
9x = 4x + 4y
9x - 4x = 4y
5x = 4y
5x = 4(5000+x)
5x = 20,000 + 4x
5x-4x = 20,000
x = 20,000
Hence Boadu share is ghs 20,000
Answer:
56 7/10
Step-by-step explanation:
convert 40 1/2 to a fraction 40 1/2 = 81/2
multiply both sides by 7/5
this gets w by itself on the left
81/2 x 7/5 = 567/10 = 56 7/10
So you would distribute what's in the parenthesis and end up with 4x-2x-6=x+1, then you combine like terms and end up with 2x-6=x+1, now you can add 6 to both sides or subtract 1 both sides (basically anything goes for this step just make sure you apply the same thing on both sides) so I'll add 6 and continue just to show you... then you end up with 2x=x+7 then you subtract 1x on both sides to get x=7. sorry it's a lot hopefully you get it know!
