The answer is 5/9.
(P.S. I got the step by step solution from a Socratic Question and Answer website)
X = 39ft
It’s the same units as house A it’s just a reflection
Answer:
Terry initially had £390
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the original amount is 3:7
Let the original amount Terry has be t and the original amount Faye has be f
3/7 = t/f
or simply 3f = 7t ••••••(i)
Terry putting 220 means he now has
t + 220
Faye withdrew 300
He now has f-300
These values are equal
t + 220 = f-300
f = t+220+300
f = t + 520 ••••••(ii)
Put ii into i
3(t + 520) = 7t
3t + 1560 = 7t
7t-3t = 1560
4t = 1560
t = 1560/4
t = 390
