Option D. 96 is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Let the higher grade be = x
Let the lower grade be = y
As given, The difference of the two grades is 16
or
.... (1)
The sum of one-eighth of the higher grade and one-half of the lower grade is 52.
... (2)
Putting the value of x=16+y in equation (2)






As x=16+y
x=16+80 = 96
Hence, higher grade is 96.
This is another one for my "impossible math question" file. All of the answer choices are wrong. (None applies.)
According to the problem statement, the length you have marked "x" in the diagram is 15 inches. If the side length of one of the pavers is "s", then the Pythagorean theorem tells us
s² + (2s)² = 15²
5s² = 225
s² = 225/5 = 45 . . . . . . the area of one square is 45 in² (not 225 in²)
Then
s = √45 = 3√5 . . . . . . . the length of one side is not 5√3
so the perimeter is
p = 4s = 4·3√5 in = 12√5 in ≈ 26.83 in . . . . not 75 inches.
The area of the 6-block L-shaped path is
total area = 6s² = 6·45 in² = 270 in² . . . . not 450 in²
And the total perimeter is 14 sides, so is
total perimeter = 14s = 14·3√5 in = 42√5 in . . . . not 60√3 in

In cases like this where the answer key is incorrect, you might try asking your teacher show the class how to work the problem.
13 : 7
(as eli has seven
and his dister has 6 more therefore 6+7 =13)
so this must be the correct answer
