To find the total amount Mrs. Johnson gave away, you need to know how much she gave the son. Because the ratio of the money given is 5:6, the amount of money he received has to be 5/6 of the money the daughter received.
So, the son received 5/6 of 2400.
To find this, multiply 5/6 x 2400 to get 2000.
The daughter received 2400 and the son received 2000, so the total amount Mrs. Johnson gave away is 4400 dollars.
Answer:
86
Step-by-step explanation:
let four consecutive integers: n , n+1 , n+2 , n+3
n + n+1 + n+2 + n+3 = 342
4n + 6 = 342
4n + 6 - 6 = 342 - 6
4n = 336
divid by : 4
n = 84
but the third term is : n +2 so : 84+2 = 86
combine like terms
-6<-1x
divide by negative 1 on both sides
flip the sign when dividing by a negative number
6>x is the answer.
