Answer:

<em>48 spices</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of spices each has is a multiple of 5, 3, and 4.

The number of spices each has is 5x, 3x, and 4x.

Pru has 5x spices.

Piper has 3x spices.

Pru has 24 more spices than Piper, so

5x = 3x + 24

2x = 24

x = 12

Phoebe has 4x spices, so Phoebe has

4(12) = 48

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:  Pru, Piper, Phoebe their ratio 5:3:4 added = 12

What this would mean is that Pru has 5/12 of the total amount, Piper has 3/12 of the total, and Phoebe has 4/12 of the total amount of spices all together.


pru = piper + 24

5/12x = 3/12x + 24

5/12x - 3/12x = 24

2/12x = 24

x = 24 / (1/6)

x = 24 * 6

x = 144 spices in all.


Pru has : 5/12(144) = 720/12 = 60 spices

Piper has : 3/12(144) = 432/12 = 36 spices

Phoebe has : 4/12(144) = 576/12 = 48 spices <====

$10,000+8.55 sales tax
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

$10,008.55

Add 10000, and 8.55 to give the total.

10,000.00

The cents will be .55 since the $10,000 does not have any cents included.

The $8 will stay since the $10,000 does not have any dollars below 10 dollars.

So, the answer will be $10,008.55
