The correct answer is 50:1 I got that one right!
Answer:
17, 19, 21
Step-by-step explanation:
x = first number
x+2 = second number
x+4 = third number
4x + 3(x+2) + 2(x+4) = 167
simplify:
4x + 3x + 6 + 2x + 8 = 167
combine like terms:
9x + 14 = 167
subtract 14 from each side of the equation:
9x = 153
divide both sides by 9:
x = 17
Answer:
£15.7
Step-by-step explanation:
32 cans x 50P = 1600p
1600p to Pounds = £26.66 (1600 divided by 60)
Remaining cans = 18 (50 - 32)
18 cans x 20p = 360p
360p to Pounds = £6 (360 divided by 60)
£26.66 + £6 = £32.66
£32.66 (Profit) - £17 (Cost of cans) = £15.66
15.66 to 3SF = 15.7
2/3 = 8/12
1/4 = 4/12
You start with 8/12 and eat 4/12 so 4/12 (or one quarter) remains.
