The girls will have to pay 24 dollars for three days at the fair
A + b = 8
a - b = -4
a = b - 4
(b - 4) + b = 8
2b - 4 = 8
2b = 12
b = 6
a + 6 = 8
a = 2
a = 2
b = 6
2 + 6 = 8
2 - 6 = -4
To find the total number of butterflies we add 9 and 7, which equals 16 butterflies in all. Then we take the queen butterfly part of the ratio, which is 7 and compare it with the total number of butterflies to get the ratio 7:16.
Answer:
5 video games.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the total number of video games that Tracy can buy with the money, she has we first need to find how much money she has left after buying the clothes. To do this we subtract the amount she spent on clothes by the initial total that Christina had.
120 - 68 = 52
Now that we know Christina has a remaining $52, we can divide this amount by the value of each individual game ($10) in order to calculate how many she can actually afford.
52 / 10 = 5.2
Finally, we can see that she can afford to only buy 5 video games.
